    Help with wiring colors? SD vs Schecter

    Hi, I'm replacing a Schecter humbucker in my Nick Johnston HSS with a JB. The Schecter pickup is wired as follows: Red/white - push pull pot Black/bare - back of volume pot Green - 5 way switch Would the JB wires follow this same configuration?

    Series parallel push pull pot

    I'm trying to wire a single humbucker with a single volume push pull pot for series parallel functionality. This is the diagram I've used. With the pot pushed in, it's reading 9k, which is correct. With the pot pulled, it's reading 2.28k. Does this seem correct?

    HSS wiring diagram using 5 way superswitch

    I have a Lollar 64 neck, a Lollar 64 middle rwrp, and a Suhr Thornbucker. I'd like to have neck, neck/middle, middle, middle/hum in parallel, and hum with a 5 way superswitch? Is this possible? It seemed to work fine with my Dimarzio single coils. But today, I replaced those with the Lollars...

    Peavey Wolfgang lower output pickups?

    What's everyone's experience with lower output pickups in a Wolfgang? What pickups have worked for you? I've been through several pickups throughout the 25 years that I've had my Wolfgang. For years I had the stock pups in it. Then I tried a few SD and Dimarzio. CC, Custom/59, Norton, Tone Zone...

    Bridge humbucker for my HSS strat?

    Hi guys, looking for recommendations for a bridge humbucker in my HSS strat. It has Dimarzio Area single coils in the neck and middle positions. I'm currently considering the 59/custom, the Pearly Gates, or a Dimarzio Fortitude. My band plays classic to hard rock. What do you think I should put...

    Favorite humbucker in a strat?

    I'm liking the Tone Zone S in this strat, but I'm not a big fan of the look. I'm considering putting in a full size nickel covered humbucker. I just think it'll look much better. I'm eyeing either a Dimarzio 36th Anniversary or a Duncan Pearly Gates. Curious what your preferences are? Sent...

    Help combining 2 wiring diagrams

    Can someone help me combine these 2 wiring diagrams? What I'd like is to add a push/pull for a "bridge always on" option to the mid/neck tone pot of the diagram that has the bridge push/pull tone pot for series/parallel. http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/604bbbf21797d/2vv1h_1ppbt_addbridge_a_0.pdf...

    Hot wire for Dimarzio SC sized humbucker?

    When wiring a Dimarzio SC sized humbucker in an HSS configuration, do I use the red or green wire as hot? I'm seeing some diagrams show green, others show red. The middle and neck pickups are Dimarzio Areas. Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk

    HSS players... Is this overkill?

    I'm putting an Area 58/Area 67/Tone Zone S combo in my strat. I'm thinking of wiring a combination of the 2 attached diagrams, to get 1 switch for series/parallel bridge and a 2nd switch for bridge on/off. Has anyone used this type of setup? Do you think it's more than necessary...

    Question for Dimarzio Area pickup users?

    I have and Area 58 and Area 67 to install in the neck and middle positions of my strat, along with a Tone Zone S in the bridge. I'm not exactly sure how to wire them. Is it useful to split them in the 2 and 4 positions, or wouldn't it make a difference? I have 2 different diagrams, but not sure...

    Single coil sized humbucker for Affinity Strat?

    I'm looking for some recommendations for a single coil sized humbucker to put in my Affinity strat. I play mostly classic to hard rock through Marshall/JCM800-ish amps. I'd love something that has some good clarity and vintage crunchiness. Nothing too overly compressed. Sent from my GM1915...

    Dimarzio HSS wiring help?

    Hi guys, I'm trying to wire up my HSS strat with a Tone Zone S in the bridge. My question is, which wires are for the split, and which are hot and ground? Right now, I have the red as hot going to the 5 way, black and white together going to the 5 way for the split, and bare and green going to...
