Re: DiMarzio Strat-sized Humbucker pairings
Alright, I did it. Got the Chopper in the neck, Fast Track 1 middle, Fast Track 2 bridge, YJM 500k High Speed volume pot, kept the CTS 250k tone pots, coil-split switch for neck & bridge, and a "neck on" switch to give me the "7 sound Strat" switching. Of course with the coil-splitting, I actually have... 12? 13? Haven't really added up the combinations yet. Haha. Also I have Tone 1 controlling neck/middle while Tone 2 is bridge only.
Sounds awesome in all settings though! Still getting pickup height dialed in to the sweet spot, but it's looking like a winner.
I'm still amazed that it all worked the first time I wired it up, without having to go back and troubleshoot anything. I must be getting better at soldering! Now I just have to become a good enough player to justify the coolness of this guitar. Hahaha
