ArtieToo and the other experienced diagram makers.... I’ve got a challenge for you. Full disclosure, I haven’t sat down and mapped it out on a computer or note pad, I’m just throwing it out as a challenge.
ingredients:
2 Duncan 4 Conductor Humbucker pickups
1 Duncan Single Coil
1 Super Switch 5-Way Switch
1 DPDT Push Pull switch (tone)
1 Pot (volume)
Is this possible?
P/P Down:
-Bridge Humbucker full
-Bridge/Neck Split Inner Coils
-Bridge/Neck full, both (standard middle position on HH guitars)
-Bridge/Neck Split Outer Coils
-Neck Humbucker full
P/P Up:
-Bridge Split
-Bridge Split and Middle Single Coil
-Middle Single Coil
-Neck Split and Middle Single Coil
-Neck Split
Basically with the push/pull down it functions as an HH, and with it up it functions like a Strat. We’ll cross the polarity bridge after we determine feasibility.
Not interested in debating how a split bridge sounds, that a split Humbucker plus middle doesn’t sound like a Strat, that the outers won’t sound like a Telecaster or that there are too many options that don’t sound different enough. This is just a technical feasibility discussion.
