Hi guys, for years now I have my repair shop take out the middle tone knob on my Strat and putting the Volume there. So my Strats are wired with 1 Volume, 1 Tone knob for all pickups in the guitar. I’m putting in a Little ‘59 neck in the necks single coil slot, middle is going to remain the single coil and in the bridge I have a full size humbucker. Can someone send me this wiring diagram? Thanks!

Do you want the bridge to have a tone control? I ask because my HSS strats used to be wired with a master volume and a single tone control that affected the single coils but not the humbucker. I don't use the tone control that much, but I found it more useful than a master tone.
 
Want anything fancy like auto coil splits in P2 and P4?

What are the brands of all the pickups? (Wire colors and polarities vary).

You want one master volume and one master tone, or one volume and two tones or one tone one volume and a blender or something else?
 
I’m lookin to just have 1 master volume and 1
master tone to all pickups. The Single coil and Humbucker are the stock MIM strat set. It will all be at 250k.
 
Nothing fancy needed like coil splits or anything please.
Would like to get a diagram for my guy to make sure he has all the right info. Thanks!!
 
For the Little 59: green wire goes to ground, black goes to the switch, red & white are soldered together and covered (using tape or shrink-tubing) to prevent them from contacting any other wires.

Everything else remains the same.
