Neck '59 bridge Hotrails tele wiring

[ollywoo]

Hi,
Iv'e got a tele with a hotrails bridge that I'm about to recieve a full size '59 bucker for. What is the best wiring option for this setup?

I'm not sure if I'd be better off with a 250k or 500k volume pot.

Thanks,

Olly.

Use 500K pots, get a MegaSwitch and do this:

And Here's the Colour Codes to help you.

Put the 59 in with the screw coil towards the bridge and all is good. I did this in one of my Tele's using two HotRails. Very Versatile.

I'll give it a go.
I have been pretty happy with the 250k with hotrails.
been thinking of using a resistor so the bridge is 250k and the neck is 500k

Anyone tried this?
