  1. hi, sorry but what is the difference??? cheers to everyone for replying to this its certainly giving me some insight, much appreciated.
  2. hi yea i'm sure it is easy, i just don't know how to do it hence asking for some help. guess i will just have to have a go at trial and error. cheers anyway people
  3. yea that's it, i did make it a bit complicated i guess! any ideas people? i'd be willing to make a small donation if someone could wack me up a wiring diagram....??? i am pretty desperate to get this done by the start of next week, so really all comments are welcome. cheers to all.
  4. hello to all. i think my initial post was a bit long winded so i am condensing it a bit: i want to wire a p90 and a seymour duncan single coil sized humbucker. i have the following (plus wire capacitors etc): 2 X rocker switches (2-position switches) for turning on or off the P-90 and the Duncan pickup (this replaces a typical LP selector switch or Strat-style blade switch) 1 X mini-switch for choosing between single-coil or humbucker (for the duncan) 2 X tone 1 X vol and i want to have the following pickup combinations: p90 on own p90 with single coil p90 with humbucker single coil on own humbucker on own i really need help with how to wire this all up so if anyone can help i would be very happy. thank you in advance to anyone that can help. cheers.
  5. hi, yea you are probably right actually, probably getting a bit ambitious for my first try! can you buy 'shielded cable' or do you have to shield it yourself? also i've read stuff about people lining the routings with copper foil or adhesive copper? is this something i should look into? just a couple more things: what would be the most appropriate pot choice for my selection of pickups? + what value capacitor would be best to go with this? sorry for all the q's! i just need this done on a budget and don't want to COMPLETELY bodge it! again any feedback much appreciated.
  6. Hi everyone, this is my first post on the forum, so HI! I have a left handed Watkins Rapier 22. The body has been routed for a SC at the neck and a P90 at the bridge. This is going to be my first wiring attempt, and I guess I just need a bit of support and advice. I am going to put a Sey Dunc Stacked Tele Single Coil sized HB at the neck and maybe a Mighty Mite P90 at the bridge. I would like to coil tap the neck pup (probably with a flick switch) and then be able to have the combinations of: 1)P90 on own 2)Stacked single (HB) on own 3)Stacked single coil tapped on own 4)P90 + HB 5)P90 + coil tap 6)P90 out of phase with HB 7)P90 out of phase with coil tap From what I have been told (and please do correct me if I am wrong) when pickups are described as out of phase, they are out of phase with another pickup? - Hence the last 2 combinations... The Rapier has 2 x 2 way plastic switches + another 2 way metal flick switch = a total 8 possible combinations. I am going to try and get a friend to help with this as he has more experience with wiring than myself, however I guess I just want some comments of whether this actually sounds feasible or not? Also other than a soldering iron, vol + tone pots, jack plug, wire (any particular sort of wire?) and the already mentioned stuff, is there anything else i will need? Any comments will be kindly received. Cheers.
