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.
That's fine, we don't have to agree. I think if you're exclusively playing rhythm guitar then that'd be the application for which an acoustic amplifier would be least problematic.
Looks like I lost the last message. Anyway can you recommend a good fit for a acoustic flat top. I can't seem to get the projection or tonal response I want with Jazz set ups. ? Considering a...
Disagree. I have been playing rhythm guitar through Schertler David/Unico and Ultrasound acoustic amps for years with single coil magnetic-pickup-equipped archtops, sometimes straight in, sometimes...
Interesting that the size of the Beaudens ( 6.7" x 5.9" x 3.15") has remained the same, but the weight increased. Regardless, around 5 lbs. isn't a deal breaker, if I could only find one.
I don't know that there's too much help in putting OD before an acoustic amp when the main problem is the speaker, which will give you those harsh tinny tones as they're intended to be more "neutral"...
Over the years I owned 5 Acoustic image amps. They are great for a flat PA sound and with a Raezer's Edge cabinet do a "Pat Martino" jazz guitar sound, if you like that sort of thing (I do,...
Hi!
I uploaded on YouTube a 22 minute video dedicated to the Harmonic Minor Scale.
At the beginning of the video I explain the harmonic minor scale in theory and then I play 5 different scales, 5...
Here’s the first recorded version I ever heard. It was on one of the first albums I ever bought (1959) and remains one of my favorites (as does the album) -
I have been fortunate to have seen Boulou and his brother Elios in the UK a few times. True masters of the guitar.
I also have a few of their vinyls which I got in the early 90s. It wasn't easy to...
