Gunstreet Stratocaster Wiring Harness - 5 Way Blender

Sale price$94.95

Our kits are a perfect drop-in replacement for your Stratocaster style guitar, whether you want to change how your instrument sounds, or just want to improve the durability we have something perfect for you!

  1. Red 50’s Wiring (Vintage High Pass Filter) This wiring was found in the first gen of electric guitars. It features a transparent sound as you roll off the volume at the cost of a steep volume taper and an on/off tone control that interacts a lot with your volume position
  2. Blue Modern Wiring: (Low pass Filter) This comes standard in most instruments and is what most people are familiar with when it comes to functionality. This style is what you call a low pass filter, meaning as you roll the volume down more highs will disappear.
  3. Green Volume Bleed (Modern High pass Filter) Often called a “treble bleed”, this circuit changes the modern wiring into a high pass filter. Get this kit if you like to use both your volume and tone control a lot and want more highs at lower volumes.

The Blender Circuit

This set up gives you 7 total sounds by turning your second tone knob into a blend knob. You can blend in either the bridge or neck pickups. This gives you the option to have Neck and Bridge together, or all the pickups on at once.

Requirements

  • Switching from an Import pot to a US Spec pot like CTS or Bourns will require you to have 3/8th pot holes on your pickguard
  • When Choosing CTS pots, you will need a 24 tooth "Fine" Pattern knob.
  • When Choosing Bourns pots, you will need a 18 tooth "Coarse" Pattern knob.
  • Some cheap Import guitar cavities are designed for Mini 12mm pots. To install a 24mm Fullsized pot may require routing out some of the cavity
  • HSS Strats. Most manufactures recommend 250k with this layout so our standard setup is the right one you want.
