Seymour Duncan JB TB4 - wiring scheme

[Danteodosi]

Hi everyone, my name is Daniele and this is my first message.
Do someone kindly have a wiring scheme to install a Seymour Duncan JB TB4 at the bridge in a Fender Stratocaster american ultra (SSH configuration)?
The Fender Stratocaster ultra has a “5-way super switch” and an S-1 volume control switch.
Thank you very much

welcome to the forum! i assume there are four colored wires coming off the current fender pup. the bare wire always goes to ground. i dont know how the color codes match up between fender and duncan off the top of my head, but i think this is accurate?

thanks Jeremy, my stratocaster originally has 3 single coil pickups, and I'm going to replace the single coil at the bridge with a humbacker, so I don't know where to solder the 4 cables coming out of the pup.

Are you sure it has a 'super switch'? You said you had an HSS but then said you had 3 single coils. Nothing in either switching description indicated a super switch would be needed. For the HSS the S-1 splits the humbucker, and for the SSS the S-1 just turns on the neck in all positions, the 5-way switch just does normal Strat 5-way switching.

I believe to match Fender pickups, the Duncan would need to be wired out of phase. So red+white soldered together and covered, green to hot and black to ground. But someone who has recently mixed Duncans with Fender noiseless will have check me on that.

You're right, I described the situation badly in the first post. I explain to you:
the guitar originally had an SSS configuration, it becomes hss by replacing the single coil at the bridge with the Saymour Duncan

is this the current mia ultra? if so i dont think it has a super 5 way, but does have the s1. currently, i believe the s1 is wired to just add the neck pup in the bridge or bridge/middle positions.

if you want to keep that same configuration, red+white soldered together and covered, green to hot and black to ground, sounds correct.

the s1 switch is capable of more than just that so you do have options

Aren't modern Fenders still out of phase with Duncans?

[jeremy]

yes as far as i know, which is why we flipped green and black (normal would be black to hot, green to ground)
