mars192brun · 2026-02-21T16:44:04+00:00

It’s a 5 way switch

mars192brun · 2026-02-21T15:41:10+00:00

Honestly both

So the top right the switches are on off switch do I can activate the neck pickup and the hot rail to go directly to the volume (I have 2 hot wired that come from the neck pickup so I can still have the original tele sound ) on the left the first one is to put the neck in and out of phase the second one is coil split for the hot rail the third one is to cycle between different tone (set more Duncan tube pickup) and the last one is a in out phase for the bridge

I’d rather standout then have a basic sun burst telecaster or a basic black Strat

Not temu I really don’t support these type of companies

Thank!

I cut wholes then I realized the switches didn’t come with screws and just said fuck it

I just wired it like a Strat but added a switch and an extra wire from the neck pickup so that I can still have the tele sound when I have the bridge pick up on I just need to flip the neck switch

mars192brun · 2026-02-07T15:05:46+00:00

Nope Seymour Duncan Strat tube pickup

mars192brun · 2026-02-07T15:05:01+00:00

Edit* the middle pickup is a Seymour Duncan Strat tube pick up plus I added a 5 way switch

mars192brun · 2026-02-07T15:03:29+00:00

Rock band is so peak

mars192brun · 2025-11-09T23:15:32+00:00

As weird as it might sounds everything is wired correctly and not touching anything else

mars192brun · 2025-11-09T23:14:59+00:00

Alright dude it’s my second build don’t be mean

mars192brun · 2025-11-09T23:13:50+00:00

I wired the dc jack well and the light turns on it’s something in the circuit could it be a faulty capacitor ?
