Advice on routing for a staple P90?
Hi all, I’m looking for any advice on a guitar of mine I’ve been working on. I plan on replacing the neck pickup with Staple P90. I’ll be putting this into my telecaster, which means I’m going to need to route the neck pickup cavity for it. As you can see though, the route seems like it would need a deep middle portion, and then a shelf for…

Series/split/parallel wiring with a DP3T slide switch
I’m building a guitar where the client wants to use a three way slide switch (DP3T) instead of a three way toggle switch (DPDT) for having a series/split/parallel wiring configuration. We’re already locked into using the slide switch instead of the toggle, and I didn’t previously realize that the slide switch was DP3T so now I’m trying to…

Reply to Wiring help with unorthodox tele setup
The way i’m understanding it currently is as follows.
1 500k Tone pot, 1 500k Push/pull volume pot, 1 3-way selector. Looking back, i’m guessing the toggle is omitted here in favor of the push/pull. Pickups are wired to the pot first, then selector, then straight to the output(?). Then when the volume knob is pulled up, it “turns on” the… -
@patreon_9484620 brought up the importance of checklists and it reminded me of the late George Parks and the lessons he taught in his drum major academy. I had the privilege of attending one of them back in the 00s and that exact lesson has stuck with me and has served me incredibly well in life and in my career.
The lesson was taught via…

Reply to Wiring help with unorthodox tele setup
So im having a bit of trouble visualizing this, apologies. If I were to use a push pull, then I could stick with having just 2 pots, a master volume and tone? How would this work in practice with the toggle, would pulling up the pot/knob turn on the pickup, or the toggle?

Reply to Wiring help with unorthodox tele setup
It WILL require 3 pots and one switch minimum. And unlike standard tele wiring the pickups will be wired to the pots first and THEN to the switch. As Nicole mentioned you can do it with stacked pots -2 if you still want a tone control- and a mini toggle between the pots or a push-pull if you don’t use two stacked pots. But yes you can just hook…

Wow! Great write up and photos! Thanks Dan! -
That's a great mod and write up! I like the trick of coated the plated bridge with superglue to prevent chipping. Thanks, Dan!
