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.
With reference to the arch, I recall my Elitist Broadway had a slightly more pronounced arch, and more pronounced recurve, and over all a more beautiful (to me) curve, than even my L5ces did. It was...
I play with the neck angled up fairly high (45 degrees, or maybe a bit more). I don't find that the strap button position makes any difference at all in terms of playing comfort or suitability for...
I'm a little confused by this thread. Last year a 90s Gibson Le Grand went unsold at a $7-8k list on this forum for several months. What's special (other than the name) in this JS to command such a...
TBH, I haven’t used the effects loop in my Blu and don’t recall seeing a level switch for it. It’s about 18 months old - I’ll look when I get home tonight.
With the 5 fret grip, you can play a scale from the first to 12 frets with 4 positions.
"you’d still get different fingerings every time you move up a fret"
Not many, much fewer fingerings than...
There's other seven positions, or one position (the whole neck), or any number in between.
Or maybe more positions if we do the one octave thing.
The more ways you have of doing things, the...
