Is it possible to wire a Humbucker and a regular Tele Bridge pickup using a 4 way switch ? Im trying to get both series and parallel wiring on the neck pickup, both pickups together and lead single coil Tele.
Yep. I did that with Dimarzio Area Ts and with Wilde L280TN, both stacked humbuckers. No reason PAF style won't work. If there is a pick up cover it needs to be grounded separately. The diagrams ought to make things pretty clear.
although with a Dimarzio Area T (with cover) and then a Wilde L280TN (no cover). Haven't done it with a PAF style bucker, but I don't see why it wouldn't work with a 4 wire conductor. You might need to ground the cover.
One other ? Since I'm using both a Humbucker and a Single Coil what ohm pots should be used? I've seen diagrams with both 500k a d 250K as well as a mix.
Not sure which to go with?
Perhaps you could use 500k/250k dual ganged pots. I have a Strat with PAF buckers in the middle and bridge, SC in the neck and wired it so that there is a 250/500k volume pot, 250k tone pot for the neck and 500k tone for the buckers. I used one side of the switch as the 250k side and the other side for the 500k side- no jumper between the common terminals on the switch.
The Interweb notation for grips is durn handy. Those are:
x24030
x34000
8x9970
x.10.10.11.0.0
etc...
I had to guess about open versus not played strings.
Shipping and a guitar to get it plected sounds crazy to me. You add the exposure of shipping damage to a job that can be done competently by someone within driving distance.
It cost a lot more...
I'm learning this Mammal Hands tune but I keep getting tripped up when the drums start the fast beat at the 2:50 mark.

Yes, I had my 175 pleked. It came out pretty good.
But about a month earlier I had a 335 type guitar fret dressed by a skilled tech and it was just as good.
And I even think the set up (not...
The best thing about Julian Lage’s playing and music is that it is uniquely his. He pulls from a lot of different deep wells. Bluegrass(Tony Rice, Doc Watson), blues(the 3Kings,Robert Cray), jazz...
There're lots of videos on YouTube about people having their guitars plek'd but none of them are archtops that I've seen. Just wondering if anybody's had the experience. I just had my Eastman Elite...
I enjoyed all of this video, Thank You Andy.
I think they all sounded very good. To Andy's credit. There is a difference when heavy strings are used vs. the lightweight strings. Big diff.
And...
I've gone through deep dives in music genres over the years, as a listener, and as a player (albeit a pretty crappy one) Change is in my DNA. Go hot and heavy until I'm sick of it and move on. All...
