haary Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 Hello, does someone know how the push pull pot for pickup selection in the esp kamikaze guitars is wired?!What Pickups does Georeg use in his kamikaze guitars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fidgec94 Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 There are 4 Kamikazees on the website, each with a Seymour Duncan TB-12 and ESP SS-120 pickup combination (according to the site). There aren't any details there about the selection of pickups.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveq Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 George uses the "Up" position for the neck pickup and the "Down" for the bridge. Is that what you needed or are you looking for the actual wiring diagram? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveq Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 He used to use the Duncan "Distortion" pickups with some modifications back in the day. I don't know if those modifications ended up being the Screamin Demon or not. I would guess not but I don't know for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haary Posted March 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 i'm looking for the actual wiring diagramm. its difficult to find something about this topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveq Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 You're just trying to do a basic two-pickup switch, right? No coil tapping or anything like that - just the way the kami works? I can describe the way the push/pull switch works if that would help. Otherwise it will take a bit of time to draw up a diagram. It's a fairly simple way to wire a guitar and most of the trouble is in knowing which pins are for what purpose on the switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haary Posted March 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 yes, thats right- just two pickups-bridge and neck-no coil tapping or something- i'm going to make a guitar that looks as close to the esp kamikazee modells-the real esp custom guitars cost too much. i'm looking for some painting tips for the custom grapic on that guitar- does someone have any ideas?! it would be great if you could draw a wiring diagramm daveq!

daveq Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 I did the same thing for my first guitar but made a few changes to it. I never ended up painting the camo on it though. LGM gave me some tips on painting a camo job like that - I'll see if I can find them somewhere. I'll try to get a wiring diagram to you soon. How far along are you? BTW, George is touring with Yngwie - I plan to see them in early april Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
