Stratocaster 5 way selector questions
Posted: Fri Jan 25, 2019 3:39 am
Is it possible to wire up a strat with a 5 way pickup selector to end up with some thing like this...
Position 1: Bridge pickup with it's own tone control
Position 2: Bridge and middle pickup with tone rolled off via a cap (tone control itself disengaged)
Position 3: Middle pickup with it's own tone control
Position 4: Middle and neck pickups without tone control
Position 5: Neck pickup without tone control
I'd like a tone control on the bridge pickup for some tone/wah like effects. Having it where the volume usually is would be cool. I use the inbetween setting - bridge and middle pickups with tone rolled off a lot with fuzz, having it there via the selector rather than having to change both the selector and tone control would be groovy ghoulies.
Make sense? achievable or an overly fiddly job?
Maybe just simpler to get a Dearmond like tone pedal made.
