In my HiFi I have spent time with cables to get the optimum sound. Worrying about signal loss for hours and generally the quality of components. So should I think the same about my guitars. Cables I've got sorted and I can talk about that another day. I'm talking electronic internals. So volume pots wires and selector switches.
I'm sure the wiring in my squire is adequate for the stock pickups but I'm upgrading so time for change.
I've ordered a fender 250 k solid shaft pot, next I'm thinking a Gibson style toggle switch and a toggle switch to switch off one coil in the humbucker. I noticed that there were 2 wires one coming from each coil so I thought I'd put a little toggle switch in to turn off 1 coil sort of a coil split. I'm thinking of losing the tone control and maybe swap to a second volume but I'd never use it.
As I write this I remember the ibanez pick up that I got as a set to replace the Seymour that's in the tell. So do I chop the tele up again and double humbucker it. Chopping the body up is fine as its got a pick guard to cover the mess but it does seem every time I do any mods its new strings time.
