If I wanted you use a toggle switch to get: 1 Neck 2 N x B (Series) 3 Bridge Would this work? The toggle would be ON-ON-ON.

Is there a rule-of-thumb so to speak concerning lead dress? What I mean is, are certain leads coming close together going to cause more oscillation than others? How should I know which ones will do this? Thanks.

I recently added a DiMarzio Area '67 to the middle position of my Strat and changed the wiring to this: http://guitarnuts2.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=schem&action=display&thread=3144 Whenever I switch to the middle pickup, the volume is really low and the tone is very thin-sounding. I have...

I have a custom Strat that is in the process of being wired. The pickup configuration is S-S-H. I know that the standard pots for an HB guitar are 500k ohms and the standard pots for a single-coil guitar are 250k, but what should I buy for mine, since I use an HB and two SC's? Thanks.

I have an Epiphone Les Paul Special II that is a thin body knock-off of a Gibson Les Paul. It doesn't have a carved top and instead of being made of mahogany, it is made of alder (or maybe basswood, I'm not entirely sure) which we all know is a brighter sounding wood. I like the tone already but...

I just finished soldering my custom guitar yesterday, and I strung it and plugged it in today. As soon as I plugged it in, there was a ton of buzzing that decreased slightly when I put my hand on the jack plate or the lead, but was still loud. I have two metal toggle switches in my guitar and...

Complex Strat Mod This is a Strat schematic that I am going to use on my custom Warmoth Strat but I am fairly new to wiring and just want to make sure that it makes sense, works, and is accurate. I've incorporated various elements from wiring mods from the guitar wiring site 1728.com including...
