    Wiring diagram for 2 humbucker/3-way blade switch w/tapped centre position?

    I just found it myself, looks like it is from StewMac using a 3-way CRL. Thanks for your advice; that was going to be my method too, was just struggling to find a diagram but think Max has solved that one for me.

    Wiring diagram for 2 humbucker/3-way blade switch w/tapped centre position?

    Thank you! Did you do what I failed miserably at and find it 12.3 seconds into your first google search? :lol:

    Wiring diagram for 2 humbucker/3-way blade switch w/tapped centre position?

    Hi all, I’m putting together a PRS-type guitar using two Humbuckers with four-conductor wiring. The top is routed for a Strat-type blade selector. I used to have an Ibanez SZ4020 Prestige that had a 3-position toggle. The positions were as follows: 1) Bridge in series 2) Inside coil of...

    Peavey 6505+ 112 Modding

    I wish I'd known about that when I had mine. I literally bypassed the entire buffer circuit and replaced it with a wire, ghetto style. That said, it fixed the problem perfectly and from then on I couldn't tell the difference with the loop engaged. Honestly what were they thinking? Oh the irony...

    ISP Decimator volume drop?

    Not a gripe, but I've already ascertained that it's not the loop as every other pedal I've ever had works fine with the loops on both my amps. You can literally patch across from the send to return of the loop using a cable and there's zero signal loss. I use a delay in the loop constantly, no...

    Peavey 6505+ 112 Modding

    From personal experience of modding a 6505+ 112: The V30 will be absolutely fine, they're rated at 70W in Marshall cabs anyway. An overdrive pedal won't allow your amp to pump out more watts than it would normally and unless you're playing the amp dimed you won't get anywhere near to blowing...

    ISP Decimator volume drop?

    The issue is very much with the ISP not the loop. As I said in my original post I don't lose signal with the delay in the loop or any of the other pedals I use. I can jumper the loop with a patch cable and there's no loss of signal at all with either of my amps so it's nothing to do with not...

    ISP Decimator volume drop?

    So today I picked up an ISP Decimator G-String (the original one, not the II.) Got it for free so I can't complain, seems to do a decent job of eliminating preamp gain-induced hiss. The problem is, using the Decimator in the loop results in a noticeable drop in volume vs having nothing in the...

    Guitars so good you have them twice or more

    PRS CE22. I've had four of them, still have two. One (a goldtop) I sold when I was desperate for money. When I could afford to get it back the guy didn't want to sell it so I offered him a straight trade with my Custom 22 10 top. So really I've bought that very guitar twice. Haven't regretted...

    NGD! Saving a PRS CE-24

    Action a little higher on the bass side should do it. I run 11-56 on my CU22 trem with no issues. That said, if you aren't going to use the trem it's worth considering blocking it off, makes the setup much easier to get right.

    NGD! Saving a PRS CE-24

    The CEs are my favourite PRS guitars ever (the old ones that is), it's great that you brought one back to life! I've just put a Juggernaut/VHII set in my CE22 Goldtop and it's my favourite guitar once again.

    Graph Tech String Saver saddles?

    I can't say I noticed. They intonate fine with massive strings (11-59 in C) and didn't change the tone all that much, to my ears at least. The spacing and dimensions all seem to be a direct fit.

    Bareknuckle Juggernaut 7. Do any of you use them

    I have a Jugg bridge/VHII neck in my main guitar (Custom 22). As far as the bridge goes it sounds awesome. Tight, fat low end, aggressive 'angry' sounding mids and enough high end that they don't sound muffled but still rather smooth. There's definitely a strong mid emphasis going on, I love it...

    Graph Tech String Saver saddles?

    I'd recommend them. They feel nice under the hand and the tuning stability is excellent. There might be a bit of high end loss but it's not dramatic, at least not with my setup (CU22 with Jugg/VHII).
