Members twotimingpete Posted March 3, 2013 Members Share Posted March 3, 2013 For me, the biggest problem with strats is they lack the very important bridge pickup + neck pickup sound/ What's the easiest way to modify one to provide this? I could see using a pushpull pot or maybe wiring it to one of the positions on the 5way that I don't usually use... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GilmourD Posted March 3, 2013 Members Share Posted March 3, 2013 Either a super switch or a push pull so you don't loose the standard five positions. I have one of each. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members photon9 Posted March 3, 2013 Members Share Posted March 3, 2013 I did mine push/pull. Really simple mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members photon9 Posted March 3, 2013 Members Share Posted March 3, 2013 Also If you don't like position 2 or 4 you can just do a lead swap. Either neck or bridge with the middle. Ill have to think what the new positions would be but I'm sure you can figure it out too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bubkus_jones Posted March 3, 2013 Members Share Posted March 3, 2013 Mini switch for each pickup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members honeyiscool Posted March 3, 2013 Members Share Posted March 3, 2013 My favorite is to just swap the pickups physically. As in the middle pickup and the neck pickup get swapped. Then you can have B+N fully noise free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members reverberlayed Posted March 3, 2013 Members Share Posted March 3, 2013 I have a push/pull. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Flatspotter Posted March 3, 2013 Members Share Posted March 3, 2013 I have a 3-pickup PRS that I used a superswitch on. I replaced the middle position (middle pickup) with bridge-neck. I have two Strats that I used a pot to blend the neck pickup into any position. This gives you the ability to have bridge or bridge-neck in the normal bridge position, but it also gives you the ability to have bridge-middle or all three in the normal bridge-middle position.
