Why is it upside down?

This is exactly what was wrong with

Thanks-card worked a treat.

but is 2 not supposed to be out of phase with 1 & 3 ?

What do you have for a three humbucker hot rail s-s-s?

Very Helpful ... Thanks

I had out of town music store work on my HSS Stratocaster (Select series), after I gotta it back, the middle and neck pickups sounded weak and thin while the bridge pickup sounds muddy, the work was done out of town and it's next to impossible to get back to this so-called music store, can anybody take a guess as to what is going on? I lifted the pickguard and all the wire connections look good, I'm going to change the pickup selector just because it's been used a lot, but then again if somebody has any information as to help me assess this problem I really would appreciate it 👍

Thank you

Im going to move in to my own first home i like your set up for your guitar's i hope if God willing it looks as cool as yours ..Im taking knobs off a 57 ri to install shielding plate and to replace 3 way switch ..Thank you for the info wow facter 100% . I will continue after my eye heals from my first attempt before vedio. I wonder if i can sue Fender just kidding i alway watch a few vedios before i attempt any work on my guitars . imagine how much a person can mess up without vedios like this..again muchisimas gracias for how to vedio..RocknRollflat5

Chris is awesome to work with and a wonderful talent.

Thanks! Exactly what I was looking for!

I love the products from mad hatter, but the wiring diagram and these videos are some of the worst I have ever seen. Is there a updated version of the tutorial? Or at least a guide that shows photos?

It's easier to use pins on that multifilar wires. But you need small pins and pin crimping tool.

thank you, can’t believe that’s all it was lol

crap that nobody really needs

makes sense, had similar issue with an old Strat jack a few months ago and corrected it by installing a new one

Hi. I've got a question. Seems my middle pickup was out of phase and on position 2(hambucker+ middle single coil) it sounded crunchy with highs. But a guy resoldered my guitar pickups and the special out of phase sound on position 2 was lost What should I do to regain the out of phase sound on position 2?

You sir made my day! The countless times i've spent re-wiring, soldering, putting everything together, tuning up and then finding no solution drove me insane. Finally found your vid and solution worked like a charm. I salute you

Thanks for the tip. Used a thin plastic insurance card and it came off with a little work. No damage :)

Yes! The tip arm should not be touching the wall. Every guitar soldering jack tutorial should mention this but they don't especially after all that work.

I have been exploring your youtube and website the past couple days, can't wait to get my hands on some of your products! But what don't you make those blade pickups anymore?

*Promo SM* 😡

Will this work on the jem Jr because I noticed that my bridge pickup doesn’t have 4 wires it has 3 I have no green wires is this a problem and I have a black and yellow wire on my middle pickup so do i follow the directions as is but just put my yellow wire in the place of the red? Also my neck pickup is the same as my bridge just 3 wires

Bruh! Fantastic video! SD should post this on their site! 🇨🇦👍

have you tryed what i do ? Just start with 2 picks stacked on each other in between the knob and pickguard, then start stuffing 1 pick at a time in between the 2 picks. It wont take but a couple more to pop the knob up. try it

.. Ive been doing it for years but I first use 2 picks together and slide both under one side of the knob then get another and wedge it in between the first 2 , the continue adding one more pick and you will be surprised that the knob pops up very easy. Great for stuburn knobs that just wont pull off, make a video of this.

Thank you very much. I used a string from a hoodie and it popped off. Probably should've put something over it but I got lucky it didn't hit me. The plastic sheet underneath the knobs was driving me nuts. Thanks again!

Without a battery, is the guitar inactive?

Does this system still pop if the volume knob is rolled all the way down?

When Jacks go wild!

'Sup Ed? VINICIUS VROCK here. Stay tune for your Mail 'cause I may have some suggestions. About this explanation, I faced some problem years ago and just NOW I know why thanks to you! Warm Regards, my friend Cheers

It's possible that both single coils were wired backwards. Also makingnit out of phase with the humbucker.

Ha I didn't watch the full part about the shoe lace an the knob knocks me right in the four head 😂

I just pound an old dull chisel under the knob and then use a rusty wood rasp for a fulcrum to pry it up... But seriously, the card and shoelace idea is great. I have tried fishing line but it can create dents in the outer flanges of the knob. By the way, the bridge pickup treble side adjustment screw is sticking up. The silicon rubber tube underneath probably dried out and cracked allowing the pickup to lift too high at that end. Hope you replaced all the silicon tubes. I also hope Jesse wasn't pissed at you for adjusting the pickup properly and by doing so, cutting the volume on his hot lead string solos...

Looking to upgrade my Jackson JS22 Dinky. I have SD invaders in them but definitely need to redo the pots and all that and wanted to find a nice solderless solution. Is the TERMINATOR 4/25 SINGLE VOLUME SINGLE TONE SYSTEM WITH 5-WAY SELECTOR SWITCH FOR DUAL HUMBUCKER (SVST-4/25) the best option? Especially for coil splitting?

I am experiencing this crazy problem with a 2 pup strat. I enjoyed your video which confirmed my problem. But I am at zero about wiring. There's too many unusual things in your guitar's guts that aren't in mine. I have to try for a video that is bare bones basic. But I'm certain that this demo is ideal for somebody with savvy.

had the same issue with a Seymour Duncan Lil '59. Thank You !!:)

A thin gift-wrap ribbon is what I use to pop off those knobs. Strong and flexible with a bit of it wrapped around the hands for a better grip. Won't break, scratch or stick to the surface on the pickguard.

Thanks so much!

You goofwads keep running your mouths about having the same "problem." If you don't want the pickups out of phase, like I want, then why did you wire the sht out of phase to begin with?

But how do you place another

Thank you. I have exactly the same problem. Now I know what to do. Awesome!! 👍

Thank you shawty bae. I love you 😘 kisses for daddy ❤

Quick question! I have the original Dimarzio Dark Matter pickups(Gravity Storms with fancy covers)and DM2 single coil(to match covers.) Each humbucker has a green ground as well as the bare wire, which I believe is also a ground. The single coil has the active black, a red ground, and a grey wire that I believe may also be a ground. The directions suggest not putting more than 3 wires into a single ground terminal. But at 2 per pickup, I now have 6 ground wires. In the video, you have no superfluous grounds to attach when you begin wiring the 5 way to the pots. Did you run all of your ground wires into the black terminal on the 5 way switch?

I recently bought the same one but a 3 way selector, Is it possible to integrate The Blow Me switch in that particular harness?

I was doing series/Split/Parallel switch on a Seymour Duncan Humbucker(SSH strat) so I flipped Black/Green and also Red/White wire. Now the 4th position is no longer weak and thin, it's loud and clear as it should be! Thank you for the video instruction 😀

You had the BEST method of them all. Thank you

idk why but i broke my knob by doing that ;-; now i cant play my guitar

I just ordered a set. Can't wait to get 'em and install 'em and hear what they sound like in my guitar!

I have a somewhat similar issue, I just put 3 new fender deluxe single coils in my strat and I have the same loss and tone in between the selector at 2 and 4. Anything I should look for? They sound great in the full bridge, neck and middle . But falls off in between like yours did
