My custum wiring

[benno]

Hey all.

In the process of me designing my 1st electric I am trying to figure out how to wire this guitar. I am making a strat style guitar with 3 single coil Don Lace AGP pickups.

I want to have 1 volume and 1 tone. I found a schematic for that here, ok so that is easy enough to follow but i also found this type of wiring here which is for a strat with a push-pull pot to make the setup more versitile.

Now what I want to do I have a push pull pot and the versitile pickup settings with only 1 tone nob. Can anyone please direct me to a schematic like this or even if they have some spare time draw one up for me..

Thanks for your time,

benno

The normal strat wiring is pretty versatile, but the combinations you miss out on are neck+bridge and neck+middle+bridge. This can be rectified using a 'neck-on' switch. You run a wire from the hot side of the neck pickup to the lugs on the push-pull switch and then another wire from the other side of the switch to ground.

Here

So all you do is take the schematic you got from seymour duncan and add two extra wires to the switch on the push-pull pot. There are loads other mods you can do with push-pull pots but this is a very simple one to give more versatility

god this is sad ..i can put a computer together .but i cant figure out how to read these digrams...

simple schematics are cake once you learn what things stand for. just pick up a book on small electronics. with practice you get better at reading them.

in any case, it'd be worth learning, cause you'll always be able to use it if you keep playing with this stuff.
