Warmoth Strat Build (part 15)
Need some help with guitar wiring…?
I’m building a Warmoth double humbucker Strat. I have a Duncan ’59 humbucker for the neck position and a Duncan Invader for the bridge. I know those pickups are on pretty opposite ends of the spectrum, but I’m trying to combine my two favorite sounds into one axe. I’m also hoping to keep the standard Fender style controls (volume-tone-tone). Do I need to use a 250k tone pot for the ’59 and a 500k tone pot for the Invader? 250k tone pot for both? 500k tone pot for both? And if I used both 250k and 500k for their appropriate pickups, would I need a 250k or 500k pot for volume?
I hope that all makes sense. This is my first build and the electronics part is scary to me.
Hello there,
You are building a Strat style guitar that will have two humbucking pickups. You need 500 K pots for humbuckers, not 250 K. 250 K are used for single coil pickups.
