In this video I cover how to wire an SG with coil splitting, using push pull pots as the tone controls.
It is a regularly asked question since we started trading: how do you combine coil splitting with 50s style wiring? Installing coil splits and combining the ever popular "50s" wiring is incredibly easy to do and a worthy mod with the correct pickups.
Components:
- 2 x 500k TVT pots
- 2 x 500k CTS push pull pots
- Switchcraft right angle ("L-type") toggle switch
- Switchcraft jack socket (long thread version)
- 2 x SSS 0.022uF paper in oil capacitors
- Gavitt braided wire

I comleted the wiring but how should I mount the humbuckers? Both Screw Polepiece outside? Or both Screw Polepiece Upsided (as shown in wiring diagram) or Screw Polepiece downsided? Thank you!

Good video! How can volume loss be prevented when splitting the coils? Thanks

Well done video. Do the push pull pots actually fit inside the shallow cavity of an SG?

Followed this and clearly did something weird - my volume pot is reversed - sound is killer though, thank you!

I wish I could follow this cos you do a blinding job of showing us mate. My problem is, I ordered stu macs SG wiring harness set and the push pulls have no plastic circuit board on. They look exactly like the other normal ones just slightly bigger so I'm buggered here. Gotta say those ones you got look like skyscrapers. They must fit with a midgies knacker to spare. Love your videos though

haha yes they're bulky and a tight fit in an SG. I think the Stew Mac ones are SPDT, they have diagrams on their website. Thanks for watching.

Would this be the same process for a LP style guitar? Other than a different shaped toggle switch and a longer piece of wire to accommodate its location everything seems the same.

50s wiring parts in an LP is so similar you'd be able to do it woth some intuition.

Every other video I've watched has the volume pot used for the push pull splitting. Doe's 50's style wiring make it necessary for using the tone lugs somehow?
@SixStringSupplies
@SixStringSupplies Жыл бұрын
no you can do 50s wiring on either volumes or tones with the coil splits. I personally prefer tones, that's all.

Hi, how different will this be for Flying V wiring with 2 volume and 1 tone?
@SixStringSupplies
@SixStringSupplies 4 жыл бұрын
Hi, fairly different but possible to do. You would use volume controls as coil splits and a master tone.

oh hello, me again, thanks for that tutorial, I haven't tried it yet but as I told you earlier, I only rely on you to wire all my guitar builds, I don't even try to understand what I'm doing, and I'm only following you blindly through all the steps. Last time, you helped me making this with your 335 harness tutorial: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oL6UfqSorbnJZoE.html I'm currently building my next guitar, it will have 2 humbuckers, a dimarzzio evolution and a dimarzzio PAF 36th ann. , those are the exact same PU I used in this build kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jstia9pz3LHZcqs.html ; and I really like the sound of them BUT I thought I'd try put some coil splitting push pull pots so I have a number of questions: - What the heck is a 50's wiring :p - Would that configuration work for my build (I mean following this tutorial, with those pickups) Thank you so much once again !!

What pots do you use? CTS, but where’d you get the plastic low profile ones? They’re 500K ok I heard you say that. Ever try a .015 and a .033 instead of standard caps? It’s tits.

good video, but after following it exactly, my humbucker is split with the CTS push pot pushed in and normal when pulled out. This is opposite of what i want and expected....So, i think youre wiring diagram and video are wrong.

@SixStringSupplies Жыл бұрын
nope - you have installed your pickups incorrectly. The video and diagram are 100% correct. Check your humbucker colour coding. Thanks for watching!

@@SixStringSupplies yes you are right! it is quite confusing with so many different pickup wire colors out there. im wiring a seymour duncan, and i had white and green to CTS #3, but it looks like it should be white and red to CTS #3. I hope this helps anyone else out there having trouble. Thanks for the quick reply.
