Japanese strat with G&L electronics

Wed Apr 10, 2019 11:55 pm

Hi, I've just bought a 79 japanese strato, and I want to adapt the wiring with S500 tribute schematic (PTB system + push pull).
I will just keep the original pickups, and change all the other electronic parts.
I found this on Seymour duncan website, but how must I do to adapt PTB system ? Its just with particuliar capacitors ?

Thanks !


Here is my recommendation:
Start with converting the wiring to the G&L Legacy wiring and then add the expander function which WitSok posted.

Make sure to post before, during and after photos and some audio too. See: READ THIS FIRST - About The Project Page sub-forum.

Good luck on your project.
