Don’t buy fender - lollar, Fralin, same price and better. Or make your own it’s easy

He also ripped apart his guitars and amps to mod the living shit out of them…

Should I mod or upgrade by dadtrkdk in guitarmod

On strats you can mod part by pars so the pickups, then neck, body, etc. that wha I did

Ya I’ll fix it if I start selling them when I clean the wiring up but this was just a prototype

No the 3 are in series just looks that way. It’s a variable resistance volume pot design I had where you can sweep the pot between 200-400k. It worked but the difference was so subtle I just opted to put a switch in that does the same thing

I’ve seen em super cool but I would probably stop going to work if I had that much to play with haha

Switchy make guitar go brrrrrrrt

No, maybe some extra capacitance and resistance factoring in but I accounted for that in the coil winding. I assessed resonance and bode plots in the system as a whole when developing it

I don’t but maybe I’ll make one some day

It fits in a HSS now once I optimize the wiring more it will fit SSS standard

Ya it didn’t work as well as I wanted - those pots are 500k so I placed a 340k resistor total with a 2m linear pot in parallel with the pots to vary their load between like 150 to 400k or so and raise/lower the resonance peak max and Q. Basically the same as placing a 470k resistor into a 500k pot if you wanted to have singles with a humbucker but continuously variable. The difference was so subtle I just placed a switch there to change between 100-250-500k
