Good Morning, There is a humbucker wiring called: SERIES/SPLIT/PARALLEL and it says that an ON/ON/ON mini toggle switch could be used. Can someone tell me if the switch should be: DPDT DPST SPST SPDT or maybe some other type. Thank you very much.

Good Afternoon, I would like to know what factors in a bass would qualify for it to be a very good slap and pop sound. I have an assumption that a semi-hollow Hofner bass would not be an epitome of a slap and pop machine. I would think that proper set up would be an important factor. Any...

Good Evening, I would like to ask a question regarding the diagram below. This diagram pertains to wiring a pickup to a DPDT switch and soldering the bare wire to the back of a pot. For my mod, the DPDT will not be near the pot. The DPDT will be attached to the pickguard of a Les Paul (Jimmy...

Good Evening, I have looked at the Seymour Duncan wiring diagram and it says if you desire series/split/parallel sounds to use a DPDT ON/ON/ON switch. I was wondering if a DP3T ON/ON/ON switch could be used? If it is not advisable to use a DP3T switch, I was wondering what would happen...

Good Afternoon, I am planning to start a mod that involves the use of a DPDT pushbutton switch and I do not know which end is up. So, I was wondering if there would be a major problem if the switches were wired "possibly" upside down. The mod I will be performing is this one listed below, and...

Good Evening, I have a question about the diagram pertaining to Series/Split/Parallel with Phase (see the link below) Could someone please confirm for me that the Bare and the Green wires are wired/soldered together? Thank you very much...

Another question about a SD schematic called "2 Hum 2 Vol 2 Tone 3 Way 2 Push Pull" Good Morning, I was looking at this diagram (see the link below) a while back and I have a question that is not addressed at least in words on the diagram. The question is, what is this the purpose of this...

Good Evening, I have a basic question to ask about this mod. Please look at the diagram from the Seymour Duncan link below. Please tell me if my way of thinking is correct, since I see only "one" four wire cable shown in the diagram I am going to assume that (considering I am interested in...

Good Afternoon, I would like to ask a question and I apologize if it has been asked before. I was just looking at the wiring diagram for the Phase switching and Series/Split/Parallel for humbucker. By looking at the diagram it seems that the diagram is designed for one pickup operation...

Good Evening, I was wondering what everyone's impression would be to this PAF style pickup combination, Alnico 4 Bridge & Degaussed Alnico 5 Neck. The reason behind the Degaussed A5 is to provide some "slight muscularity" and "bassiness" to the neck position. The resistance would be: Bridge...

Good Morning, I have a hypothetical question to ask. This question will pertain to a PAF style pickup. Suppose you desire the sound characteristics of an UOA5 magnet, (where it is meant that an UOA5 can be considered as a tonal combination of an A5 and as an A2) but all that you have access...

Good Evening, I was wondering... primarily if anyone knows what magnets does Jim Rolph use for his pickups and if possible if any other specification information is available. Thank you very much. Greg

Good Evening, I was wonderinf if anyone has any idea what pickups can get me to these tones. And while this topic is being discussed any guitar or amp informations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much. Greg
