HSS Wiring Question
« on: June 10, 2015, 04:16:41 PM »
I'm planning out some new pickups and I'm looking at a 36th Anniversary PAF with two Area 67s. What I want is effectively a 500K volume on the PAF and a 250K on the Area 67s. In the second position I will be splitting the PAF with one coil from Area for the Strat tone with hum cancelling.

My first though was to use two separate volume controls but I don't really need that. What I have read here is that some folks wire in a resistor so when the switch is in the relevant positions (2-5) the pickups basically see a 250K load.

Any advice here would be appreciated. Thanks.
