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.
PS. I evidently can't do math either. 99.9% + 1% is not... before anyone else points it out :smile-new::smile-new:

Yeah I feel you wrt the sensitivity but 40w power handling is a lot. With modern solid state amps and a single 96 db 1m/1w 10" driver you can handle a lot of clean volume with minimal weight.

Its more the sensitivity. The Blackbird is 3dB less sensitive than the NEO10-100 that I used to use. That is a factor of 1/2 on the effective amp power. AlNiCo is too expensive (unavailably so) at...
