I have a PRS Tremonti SE, and Ive just bought a set of PRS Tremonti USA Pickups for it. As the treble is four core, I fancy splitting the coils for a bit of tone variation.

So, went and bought a push pull pot ( i love alliteration).

Then got home and realised I wasnt sure how to wire it up :D

Its one of the ones with a 6 pin base, in the style of
oo
oo
oo

with the pot itself on top

Totally throwing this one open; hit me with a wiring diagram of what you think I should do, and Ill do it! Im handy enough with soldering and general pickup installation, just not sure how to do the switching!

Thanks in advance :)

Try Seymour Duncan for wiring fixes. I'm not sure what your control layout is but they cover just about everything.

Our resident 'Hopeless Tinkerer' - Duhvoodooman... had done one or two wiring mods in his travels. Have a visit to his personal link here... http://duhvoodooman.com/musical/humbucker_mods/humbucker_mods.htm

Good luck with the mod

markb,

THANK YOU for that link! Seymour Duncan is awesome for setting that up. I'll use this for my humbucker 2-coil tap setup on the hybrid STJ (Strat, Tele, Jazz) :)
