Okey i feel like this is going to be a long thread, but hopefully someone can help me.. basically I want to know what the possibility of hooking an EMG 81 up to my strat instead of the humbucker.. I just recently bought a mexi strat off ebay and have a emg 81 hanging around that my friend gave me. First off I know I would have to buy a different jack (so its stereo instead of mono), one question on that can I hook the passive single pickups through the stereo jack? Also would I need to add 1 more volume knob to my guitar or could I control both the EMG 81 and singles with the same knob (something else that confuses me because ill need a 25k pot for the active, and a 500k pot for the passive).
Basically what im wanting is to be able to switch the two passives on/have the EMG 81 off, and be able to switch the EMG 81 on and have the two single coil passives off.. Is this possible?
