    Fishman Modern and singles HSS trouble.

    Hoping for some help here. I bought a fluence modern and 3 singles strat set with the idea of doing a HSS configuration in a Fender strat. The tech who's fitting the pickups has found there has been a real problem with wiring them, as it seems they weren't really designed to go together...
