Description

Fender Stratocaster HSH Vintage Style Wiring Kit

To fit models with a Humbucker in the Bridge and Neck and a Single coil pickup in the Middle position.

This Fender Stratocaster HSH Vintage Wiring Kit is designed for replacing old electrics or upgrading the electronics of imported models or for use on DIY Kits. We take a massive amount of care and attention when putting our Fender Stratocaster HSH Kits together. Everything is fully tested before being posted to you.

This is a Professional Stratocaster wiring Kit using the very best in components to enhance the quality of tone and sound output from your guitar.

The Kit is designed the same way as a Stratocaster 5 way Kit, but with two differences. This wiring Kit uses 500k pots and includes a 470k resistor to be wired inline with the single coil to step down the pot to 250k. This will tame the high frequencies to keep with a more traditional Stratocaster tone.

Treble Bleed Option
A Treble Bleed takes the high treble tone frequencies out of the circuit at the volume pot and puts them back in the circuit as the signal leaves the volume pot. The result is a smoothed out treble and a more uniform tone from 1 to 10. Reducing the treble drop out as the volume pot rolls off. If you like the idea of retaining treble as you roll your volume pot down, then a treble bleed is for you.

Controls
Master Volume control.
Tone 1 – Neck Pickup adjustment only.
Tone 2 – Middle & Bridge Pickup adjustment.

Switching
Position 1 – Bridge pickup with volume and tone adjustment.
Position 2 – Bridge pickup with middle pickup in parallel with volume and tone adjustment.

Will this fit my guitar?
Our pre-wired Fender Stratocaster HSH Wiring Vintage Kit is wired to fit genuine Fender USA or Mexican control plates. If installing into an imported model or a DIY guitar kit you will need to ensure the Potentiometer holes on the Pickguard will take CTS pots (approx 10mm). This can be done using a round file or carefully with a 10mm drill.
