This is an easy one. Going through Premier guitar and other wirings to try for a different type of setup I remembered this existed. What I found odd was how the tone control is wired. Would this do anything differently than your standard tone control. I find it odd how the capacitor is...

A friend on a social media website asked me how to wire up a dummy coil and I couldn't find much help on google as I've always been a 4 wire humbucker guy myself. I did however find some really sloppy diagrams that didn't help. Anyways after 20 minutes of googling I drew this out and really I'm...

A friend of mine wants me to put some Fishman Fluence pickups in a guitar and I've got a quick question regarding the solder pads. On certain models such as the classic set. There is 4 solder pads in total. How they describe it is. the bottom 3 A row of three solder pads are used to select...

I'm sure there are a lot of people who have a lot of pickguards they put back and forth into guitars and I figured I'd show this off. This works on ANY passive pickups and you can even do really basic pickup swaps with these too but lets focus on Ibanez RG and strat guys. I was sick and tired of...

I'm putting a project together and I'm after some reassurance of a wiring if it would work or not as I had no luck with the guitarelectronics.com wiring diagram, positions 2 and 4 were coilsplits on it in their diagram so I put together this. I'm surprised Seymour Duncan doesn't have more than...

Re: Jimi Hendrix™ Signature Strat Re: Jimi Hendrix™ Signature Strat cool guitar with the Jimi Hendrix guitar pickups in I put a silver pearl pickguard on a similar MIM strat. Think it was Daphne blue To me it's hard calling a set of pickups a Jimi Hendrix pickup set a signature set when they...

This is an easy question I'm sure and I figure I'll get a quicker answer here. With 1950s wiring how the capacitor is hooked up between the two pots is there a right or wrong combination for the tapers of the pots. I base my 1950s wiring off of a very old seymour duncan diagram back when it was...
