Hi all,
For a while I wanted to do test the Strat 7 Sound mod. No specific reason, just for fun. I didn't want to drill a hole in the pick guard but instead wanted to use the existing hole used by the second tone pot and have a master tone pot for all 3 pickups. I didn't want a push-pull pot, blender pot, etc. and wanted to keep it as simple as possible.
In general, I can do basic wiring following a drawing but my knowledge of electronics is very, very limited.
I'm sure this has been done before but I couldn't find this wiring on the internet (found every other possible variation with 2 tones!) so I combined the existing 1 Master Volume, 1 Master Tone Strat wiring with the 7 Sound wiring and came up with this:
And, to my surprise, it works. I didn't have time to do a lot of testing and the first impression is that the overall sound seems to be brighter but otherwise all positions works fine. The bridge+neck combination is quite interesting and usable.
Did any of you guys try this before? Is there a better way to do this? Any comments/suggestions?
