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.
As long as we are ranting on reverb, how about how every guitar made in japan in the 70s is now a lawsuit guitar, as if that makes them more desirable. Or super rare. Yes, they only made as many as...
It makes crossing strings extremely easy, as the pick has to hardly move. However you have less definition and a much rounder tone with less treble. Yet another thing to puzzle us when trying to...
You can sweep pick the last line at the 6th fret, it's a GbM7 arpeggio (preceded by the notes Eb & F on the 5th string). I played the entire four bars in the 4th to 6th fret positions, shifting as...
Hello again,
I finally completed my restoration work, not perfect, but much better than original condition!
I used a smooth brush to remove all the sticky dust on the pickups and polished...
Well, hey, surprise!
I just came here to read about something else, saw this and guess what - today I also fitted JS112s to my '66 ES125 and - exactly the same: new guitar!
I didn't move the...
