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.
I use my acoustic Mule steel tricone for everything I play, including jazz. A nice sounding acoustic tricone is hard to beat the sound of to my ears. If I wasn’t to add a little something different,...

Well I searched and it said pleks don't round the fret ends so I would say try to find a good luthier. But you said there are only 2 in your area, the suck guy and an ok guy, so I understand your...
Nice one AllenAllen. Duo gigs next for you :highly_amused::smile-new:
We'll get a full set if I do improv but am actually looking forward to the solo set more. I love the freedom.
I had a very rare 1 off sweet 16 pleked by J Wolfe. It came out great and after it shipped from fla to ca all I did was adjust the action hight and it plays perfectly. At about the same time I had a...
A rough estimate on the guitars results in about 100, I still have 10 of them. I am not so sure about the amps. I guess about 20-30 and still have 2. Not counting the mandoline, banjo, bass, and ukes
I've owned over 100 guitars easily since the late 70's, no idea how many. Far fewer amps though, maybe a 15? Right now I have 17 guitars, 2 bases, and 5 amps.
Yes, and I've owned one. Violins, that is, not its maker. Where do you think I got my ideas about current makers not being incapable to match the products of the old makers?

I need to make a video on basic chord melody.
What the others said. You don't need a book. All you do is take the melody on top and insert the interval (or chord inversion) below that fits...
I wouldn't assume am unlevel board is reason the refret job turned out badly, and I definitely wouldn't assume a Plek machine is necessary to check a fingerboard for levelness and fix it. And even...
I've had a couple of guitars pleked, an LP and a vintage strat. Both came out great, though the LP later had to have the fingerboard loosened and reglued, a problem that apparently was there when it...
What is the serial number I can tell if it was the last one made. Based on the bone overlay for the saddle I can tell you this was one of the last 5 or so Barker guitars. I don't remember playing it...
