help with install a 59trembucker in ssh strat

[greendy123]

Hi guys,

Right Im considering getting a duncan 59 trembucker in the bridge for my sss fender strat. I wondering what I should know before I contact a person to install that pickup for me. I have heard of changing how the pickup switch works and other things such volume pots. Could you guys inform me about those subjects and anything else I need to consider before getting the pickup installed?

Thanks

If you are keeping the stock Fender pickups in the mid and neck positions you'll probably have to wire the SD pickup in using the green as hot and the black as ground to keep the phase correct.

Everything else can stay the same.

Yeah I plan to keep the stock fender neck and middle pickups. Thanks for mentioning that, I forgot to put that in too.

Can anyone help me with my questions?

Okay I think im going to get a modern setup,
Blender Wiring: master volume / master tone / blender,
now when I get my pickup installed.

All the electronics in my guitar are unchanged from the original. Is there anything I should tell the guitar technician before the change in wiring? Such as something with change in pots and what kind of blender to use.
