SO WHAT IF I HAVE 3 OTHER PROJECTS

Post by theshadowofseattle »

Being the man behind the most complicated SG wiring fiasco ever, I've set my eyes on outdoing myself:

3 individual coil taps (splits? dooglolz) for them HOT RAILS, 3 on-offs, master tone and volume.

Would it be possible to have some ridiculous push-pull series or phase bullshit too?

Looks like a wank idea. You should install all those switches and take out the neck and middle pickups and just not wire the switches in. But make a big fuss of messing with them whenever you're playing.

YOU LOOK LIKE A WANK IDEA.

LITERALLY. YOU ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY RESEMBLE AN ENGORGED PENIS THAT IS STRUGGLING TO FORMULATE A THOUGHT WHILE BEING STROKED.

Lolz

Coilsplit = splitting humbucker to singlecoil
Coiltap = stock but with fewer windings

Remember it with this handy acronym: CSSHTSCTSBWFW

No-one EVER uses phase switches, but a parallel-series switching sounds GREAT.. so beefy, so crazy panpan.

just make each switch for each individual coil all wired in series. that way you can have any combination of any of the six coils on the whole guitar.

Arcade button killswitches are dead fun, but less intuitive than doing it LES PAUL STYLE.
