Fender 500K/250K Dual Pot - worth the install? Find out here!

Описание: I love playing Stratocasters, but I've always preferred a Hum-Single-Single - or better yet, a Hum-Single pickup configuration instead of the standard Strat Single-Single-Single. Everybody knows SSS gets 250K pots and HH gets 500K pots, but what do you use when you've got an HSS or HS setup? 250K pots make the humbuckers sound muddy and 500K pots make the single-coils sound ice-picky.

The fine folks at Fender came up with a solution - two pots on one shaft, complete with separate lugs! One part is a 250K pot for your single coil pickups; the other part is a 500K pot for your humbucker.

I received the suggestion to try these pots in a well-known online guitar discussion forum straight from Ron Thorn, Principal Master Builder for the Fender Custom Shop. When Ron makes a suggestion, you can bet it's going to be a good one - and it was as you'll see in this video.

You can see detailed wiring diagrams in another of my videos:    • Fender Strat Wiring Mods - 3-way switch, G...

Tone test of the Fralins in this guitar and my other HS guitars (Fender and PRS) coming soon!

Pickups: Fralin Modern PAF, Fralin Twangmaster (Yes, I realize I call it a Twangbucker repeatedly in the video. Sorry, Lindy!!)
