    Vintage Stack Bridge for Tele ...which colour lead is hot for top coil?

    I recently posted this diagram (top) for auto-splitting a bridge stacked humbucker using standard 3-way switch at middle. But SD Support says the bottom schematic is correct wiring to have bridge stack's top coil active in middle switch setting. Does this mean Red leadis hot for the top coil...

    OK what gives?

    2016 Fender Pro I Telecaster, ash body, STR-2 neck and STK-2 bridge ... wired properly, but sounds thin and pinched and dark. 2019 Fender American Original Tele Thinline, stock ... sounds like the Folsom Prison concert lead guitar is in your living room. The Duncan Tele pickups sound like crap...

    Tele Bridge Stack Coil Cut in Middle Position (3-pos switch)

    Does that look like two jumper wires at the switch? Also, Fender's switch doesn't quite look like the same. That one is top L - bottom R whereas Fender's 3-way is bot L - top R. zz0.lzxwom5c9zz

    Tele Bridge Stack Coil Cut in Middle Position (3-pos switch)

    Hi, How do I ground out that stacked bridge bottom coil when in 3-way switch's middle position with single-coil neck? I want full series on bridge setting but top coil only on bridge+neck. Cannot find a schematic for this. Isn't there a ground lug on the switch where the bottom coil's...

    How to Install Strat Cool Rails to Pro II?

    Hi, The Pro II Strat has polarities and coil directions 'backward' compared to other Fender SSS configurations. Below is the actual Pro II setup. How to wire in a Cool Rails bridge so that it preserves hum cancel with stock middle single coil--without splitting the Cool Rails? zz0.mdqzu3q3czrzz

    Wiring check: auto-splitting with STK-S1/2 Classic & Hot Stacks

    I wish there was information about the coil direction and polarity for the older STK-S1 bridge! I need South up and top coil per the diagram here. There is maddeningly no info on this. zz0.t39rorjjotzz

    Making Use of STK-1B's Four-Wire

    Hi, Just had a NOS Vintage Stack STK-1B installed to my Pro II Strat's bridge spot. Has a real Les Paul tone to it and gets rid of the grating V Mod II single-coil! The stack has been wired in series, as with a regular humbucker, but this causes noise and overpowering output when it's used...

    WHAT is the correct Tele Stack bridge screw?

    Got a NOS STK-3b ... supplied screws drop out when I try to adjust height relative to strings! There's one at 3/4" thread length but two at 5/8". I think they're #6-32. Should all three be 3/4"? HALP I have an April Wine covers gig
