Well, after nearly one and-a-half months of total build time, transit delivery, yada yada...the pickups are finally here. But... I must first mention that I did not end up getting the SD Custom Shop Dynas, but instead I opted for a set of Pete's custom pickups from Vintage Vibe Guitars.
On hand with me right now, I have a neck HS-90A (ALNiCo slugs) with 9.4k hi-tap 43awg / 6.7k lo-tap 42awg, as well as a HS-90SW (bar mags) with 11k hi-tap 43awg / 7.1k lo-tap 42awg. The bridge pickup has option to change some bar magnets with additional A2 magnets provided.
Each pickup has four leads: black and white for shielding/grounding, and red for hi-output tap, green for low output tap.
I've decided that I'm going to have both pickups wired in parallel (for the middle position). I'll save for a change to multi-switch later down the road. I really miss the middle position quacky/slappy tones.
Note: I have two Alpha 250k push-pull pots for Volume controls. I'm going to use two of the stock Guild 500k for the tone pots. I'm assuming that I would wire these P-90s like regular pot wiring, except that the extra output-tap leads go where?
I've been trying to find any sources or diagrams and schematics of similar wiring online, but have not been getting any luck.
Anyone tried this before, or know similar schematics where this is still applicable? Two P-90s, wired in parallel, two volume, two tone, 3-way switch?
Thanks in advance -- RH
