postofficebuddy Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Ive been building my own guitar, Its a strat body with holes in it that look big enough to fit humbuckers Ive sprayed it like an evh and gave it a floyd rose. It looks really cool but the only bad thing about it is that it sounds really bad So i wanted to know if i could fit a gibson humbucker Any tips and stuff would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotgoalie11565 Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 Do you have pictures of the body? That would be helpful. But the short answer is yes, you can do it. If it's a standard routing for a strat you can do a lot of different pickguard configurations. If it's a routing just for 2 humbuckers you can do that too. You may need to do extra drilling for the wiring, but either way you can do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jscott1039 Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 I was wondering about this myself. I have a Squier Tele that i put a Gibson humbucker in, and I don't think that it's wired to the selector switch properly. I've searched Guitarelectronics.com and couldn't get a straight answer. Humbucker/Single, 3-way slelector, 1 Vol., 1 Tone. I wired the humbucker to the last two points of the selector switch, and I'm wondering if I should just wire it to just the last one.
