I recently replaced my single coil bridge pup in my mexcian strat with a SD Lil '59. Before that, a guy that worked in my city, wired a single coil pup to my bridge pup, (eliminated the hum, but I dont think it actually was wired for sound, just humbucking purposes... if that's possible) which was stored behind the volume/tone controls.
I wasted no time in tearing the thing out, as the 59 is noiseless anyways. Afterwards, I was left with 2 questions; how can I use the extra pup and wire it to my neck position single coil, as I like the sound I have on the neck pup.
The second question, was posed to me on another board after I heralded the effectiveness of this technique, and the inquisitor wanted to know how to do this to his strat, on the bridge pup.
Basically, is there anyone that can tell me where to solder the wires to use this technique in both the bridge and neck positions, or maybe a link to a diagram?
I wish I had paid more attention when I was taking the old one out... but alas the excitement was overwhelming over my impending new sound, and all I seen of the old monster was quickly laid to rest once the 59 was installed.
Thanks in advance,
Troy
