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 already being pointed out by many electric guitar into an acoustic amp is not a recipe for a great sound, which I totally agree with. If crispy acoustic like rhythm sound is the target, why not...
Sure the shape is awkward, but why did they also decide to drop the ones made of wood and go with such a cheap looking multi-ply cut plastic one? Wood isn’t generally my preference but at least it...

I can underline Archie's point about trussrods on Gibsons. Like SS, I've had at least 7 175s, rangeing from early 60s, through 70s, 80s, 90s, to 2000s models. One thing that consistently bothered me...
I love my milkman into my raezers edge stealth 110 ER. It’s among my favorite cabs for jazz. The sound is very direct and punchy, quite unlike the spongier sound of a fender amp.
one thing that...
