Coil Splitting Help


Recommended Posts

ok, if this has been previously explained, can someone please direct me to where it is, cuz i cant find it. If not, well, id like to first apologize for my complete ignorance when it comes to this subject. I have a custom tele body, and three seymour duncan pickups, that Ii have not yet wired up.

neck- Little '59, stacked single coil

middle- hot rails, stacked single coil

bridge- sh6, humbucker

In my ideal situation, it will have three knobs, volume, tone and a black ice which ill tackle in the future. One of them will be a push pull pot, so when you pull it up, the three pickups are true single coils. Is there any way to do this?

You can't do it on a normal push pull switch as they are only double pole and so can deal with two pickups. If you are using a strat-style 3 or 5-way switch then it is possible as you use one side of the selector switch to feed the coil tap.

There is a diagram for this in my book.
