Members guitarjedi33 Posted March 27, 2007 Members Share Posted March 27, 2007 i posted this awhile back with no real answer so i thought i'd throw it out there again.. i have a fender power strat with a fishman piezo bridge.. love the guitar but it is kinda a pain in the ass to turn the piezo down and turn the magnetics up vice/versa... i've seen these guitars with a three way switch installed later to toggle the pickups... anyone installed one of these? is this an easy mod? i want to install a mini toggle to change between the two or combine without all the volume adjusting....

Members ballhawk Posted March 27, 2007 Members Share Posted March 27, 2007 I've never owned a guitar with that combination and I'm just an amateur solderer. But, in theory, assuming that the piezo and the magnetics both connect to the one output jack, then a simple switch between the piezo and output should work. You would just interrupt the circuit or complete it. Hope this get's you a bump with more info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GAS Man Posted March 27, 2007 Members Share Posted March 27, 2007 No, but I lived in Turkey for 2 years in the mid 60s as a kid. Not a place I'd like to hang out in its prisons. Its old hotels were enough of a culture shock to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ajcoholic Posted March 28, 2007 Members Share Posted March 28, 2007 The LR Baggs Control-X will do exactly what you need. It is a powered preamp/mixer that can be installed in your strat (actually, the supplied instruction explain rewiring a strat for it). One of the tones becomes a blend pot, and there is a three way switch to select piezo only/blended piezo and passives/passives only. Its about $85 US from Stew Mac.
