guitar pickup wiring
« on: April 12, 2011, 06:16:29 am »
Guys,

I thought I'd post these for anyone who might want an editable version to edit to  how they wired their own guitar pickups.

The S-S-S  is actually NOT single coils, but I labeled that way simply to distinguish it from the dual coil (side by side) humbuckers on the other guitar.

The S-S-S wiring is actually pretty cool for my uses because the neck pickup is out of phase when combined with the middle pickup and it gives an exceptionally clean tone. Almost Tele or acoustic type clean tone.

EDIT  3-10-13 :  Changed both the middle pickup out and the wiring on my Tele with S-S-S pickups.  I like this combination really well and the volume turned out very balanced for it.  The mini-toggle switch for the phase reverse on the neck pickup is set up so that the neck pickup is normally out of phase.  I like that tone really well. It's somewhat bright and chimey sort of like I imagine lipstick pickups to be.

EDIT  11-15:    Change my S S S  flame Tele to a  H-S-H  Tele.    Neck pickup is series/parallel wiring  switched and there is the 7=tone switch also.   Very nice and useful arrangement.

With respect, Tubenit
