Dear forum colleagues, I have a question about coil split wiring scheme. To split a SD humbucker leaving only the south coil working (adjustable screws), it is needed to allow the signal to enter through the south coil start (green wire) and to combine all other wires to the ground (black...

Re: Stratocaster wiring proposal - Push/Pull pots Dear ArtieToo, thank you a lot for your comments and considerations. I'm probably not the best person to design wirings! :) Let me try to answer to your comment: "Look at the green wire going from the bottom "1" terminal to the middle...

Re: Stratocaster wiring proposal - Push/Pull pots Dear vinnie1971, thank you a lot for your inputs! It really made me think the whole wiring rationale in a better way. I must confess I probably did not catch/understand all the details you described on how to perform the modifications in the...

Dear forum colleagues, I hope you are all doing well! I'm about to mod my Squier Affinity Strat to add some new features. I would like to present the idea for you, and hopefully you would be able to give inputs, identify weaknesses and add new points! Thank you in advance for sharing your...

Dear All, I have been working in a project guitar (Harmony H-802) that has a "fret zero" before the nut. I could not find a clear source of information for how to proceed with the filing of the nut and I would like to validate with you my assumptions: The strings should all lay over/touch the...

Hi everyone! I'm thinking of wire my Epi LP STD with push-pull pots so I can have the option of using my humbuckers in parallel, having a single coil taste, with less noise/hum. I could easily find wiring diagrams everywhere, but it does not seems to be easy to find linear 500K push pull pots...

Dear All, I have been seriously thinking about having an AC voltage regulator and stabilizer for my gear (amp, pedals etc.), because there is a annoying intermittent noise sourced in the power line that I cannot avoid in other ways. Would you have any recommendations of specifications and...

Dear All, I'm really a beginner, so if my question is too basic, please don't kill me OK? :) I recently replaced the original pickups of my Epi LP Std by a JB+Jazz set. I really liked the result so far. At the same time (and I'm not sure if it was not there before), when I'm playing using my...

Dear All, I'm going next week to Canada and will spend some days there. I would like to bring a nice effect pedal, from a Canadian company as a "souvenir" ... something nice I could find a long list of Canadian manufacturers. Some of them are at Amazon.com, some not. Would you have any...

Maybe I'm posting a question that had been discussed here before, but I really could not find a good answer for my doubts, yet, so I hope you guys can help me to calm down my concerns. I had also looked other discussions forums, without success. To better understand my comment, please refer to...
