Haywire Custom Guitars USA-Custom Shop seven Sound switch guitar mod Translation:
NORMAL Position 1 of the 5-way selector switch activates the bridge pickup alone by engaging the toggle switch at this point it will activate the neck pickup giving you the bridge and neck pickups together.
Likewise, with the 5-way selector switch in the second position with the bridge and middle pickups activated, a flick of the toggle switch adds the neck pickup to the equation which gives you ALL of the pickups together. Two choices now missing on a stock Strat.
Here’s the switch run-down: Here’s what you’ll get after we added the 7 Sound Toggle Switch between the Tone Controls:
Position 1-Will give you tones and sounds reminiscent of the “Byrds” Rickenbacker tone.
Position 2-Will make all three pickups available at one time.
