As most of yew know I never use the neck P/U alone and I found out today that my options wirin schemes I had were no longer on my page. Thanx Don!! I preciate yer checkin that fer me.

I puttum back on and mebby iffin sum of yew haff time yew could make sure they will work.

I use two options here inna TELE-Shack other than standard three-position TELECASTER wirin.

Also I dew not like four-way switches cause I git cornfused when pickin on stage.

Here are the two options now listed on my page.

Tell me watt chew think!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It does make a difference but yew haff ta pick which one yew like. I like the series/parallel one the bess but yew git the Strat poinky poinky sound when the P/Us are outta phase.

Oh !! and these are shown usin the standard CRL switch. Them new plastic ones are a liddo different.

I haven't tried to solder them up to hear how they sound, but judging from the drawings I think I would prefer #1. The two pups in series is a very nice sound, and I use it a lot. I'm one of the people who actually use the neck pup alone, so I have solved it with a 4-way switch (yes I agree, it can be a bit confusing... :? ). But bridge-parallel-series is a very interesting solution with a 3-way switch. Maybe I will try them out next time I spend an evening with my soldering iron. If I do, I will let you know what I think. Thanx for sharing the schemes!

What tonal differences are there in wiring series vs. parrallel? :?

In standard tele wiring, is the middle parallel or series?
I'm asking because I rarely use the neck pup either. If I do, it's because I'm trying to emulate a Gibby Country Gent or something like that. Tell me, is this something I should try out? Will it be worth the effort? I know nothing of this subject. :?

thanks,
Shawn

Middle position on standard TELECASTER is parallel.

It's hard tew describe a series hook-up but the sound seems full and loud. Mebby not as broad-ranged but still pleasant and different. Resistance is doubled but the volume does not drop off much.

Out of phase makes a hoe bunch of difference. I call it a poinky poinky sound. Weird but inner-restin.
