ma_tt11 Posted August 29, 2010 Report Posted August 29, 2010 I have a bit of an issue with the wiring of a guitar I've built... and cant find any diagrams that could wire it the way I want it. Guitar is a les paul style guitar with two 4-conductor humbuckers, a standard 3 way switch, two push-pulls, and an on/off switch + 9V batter As it stands, I'd like: Standard 3-way selection between pickups independent volume and tone controls independent coil tapping of the pickups (ie. each push-pull corresponds to a pickup, push pulls under the tone knobs) and something interesting with the 9V and on/off switch if anyone has any suggestions? a preamp or circuit I could make... a wiring scheme for that would be cool, and much appreciated, but open to suggestion of something else that could provide more versatility with what I've got mentioned above, if anyone has any ideas theyre willing to share! Thanks! Quote
borge Posted August 29, 2010 Report Posted August 29, 2010 So stock LP setup with individual coil splits...I'd say theres a few thousand copies of LP wiring diagrams around alls you need to do is add the coil splits like so: http://www.seymourduncan.com/support/wirin...1hum_1vol_split As for a preamp: http://freestompboxes.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=431 you could replace the bass and treble pots with fixed resistors if you'd rather the passive tones.

I was referred to this: http://www.guitarelectronics.com/product/W...w-Download-Free But how would I integrate that preamp into the circuit? whereabouts would it go? (I'm new at this... i havent done much in the way of making my own circuits or adding things to them other than just playing with capacitor values!) Quote
