Series/Parallel + Out of Phase in Les Paul

[DocGid]

I want to wire a Les Paul with Dimarzio 36th for series/parallel and out of phase (neck/bridge out of phase). Is it possible, and if so, what would I need to do to get this to work?

You need a 4 wire for series/phase between the coils... Is that version available?

Otherwise pushpull pots, but very doable.

May as well do the Jimmy Page wiring.

Yes, I have a 4-wire and push pull pots. I just wasn’t sure if rigging up individual pickups to do parallel plus rigging out of phase was possible. Definitely the more important one to me is out of phase.

If its all you are doing, Out of phase is incredibly easy...

You would solder middle wires together (ignoring series to parallel) and hot and ground are inverted with this mod...

From my pov, this is the least useful of the mods... It can be nice to thin out uber crunch or as a whispy blues tone...

Howvere, if you have a 4 conductor, series parallel provides a serious shift that I usually use to move between rhytem and lead and its noise free, so I like it better than Jimmy Page approach...

Of course now you have to incorporate the middle wires that we soldered together in the previous step.
