Hello guys. First time poster here. Hope you’re all doing alright.
So, I’ve bought a Fender Player Plus HSS Strat and decided to swap the bridge HB for a 59/Custom Hybrid, since the original sounds like garbage and is microphonic like hell.
I sent it to the guy who usually does this kind of thing for me (small town, only guy around) and told to configure the pu such as that when split, the “custom” side would come out (around 7k), but after installation, the reading is about 4,14 k, which shows that the 59 is the side being split.
I have searched a lot and sent him several forum threads about splitting this pick-up correctly, but it seems nothing is getting through his hard head.
Would there be any way for me to tell him on an easy step by step way what he should be doing to get the split working correctly? Like, the order of the soldering and which wire goes where?
I have no experience swapping pickups, but if it comes to that, guess I’ll have to learn, just curious to know if there is something I can do while my guitar is still with him to receive it correctly configured.
Btw, the electric/Electronic components are all stock on the Fender Player Plus Strat.
