HSH Strat® Wiring Harness
OPTIMIZED FOR HUMBUCKER & SINGLECOILS
The ObsidianWire HSH Wiring Harness for Fender® Stratocaster®, is the perfect way to open up your humbuckers with some extra clarity and output, while retaining that sweet single coil tone.
The trouble with a traditional wiring kit in a Strat® with humbuckers and single coils is that humbuckers need a good 500k potentiometer for full clarity and output, while the single coils need a 250k set of tone and volume controls to tame some of their natural highs.
ObsidianWire is the perfect solution with a special custom design allowing for auto switching between 500k tone and volume controls in the full humbucker positions, and 250k controls for the single coil positions.
A DROP IN WIRING UPGRADE FOR YOUR HSH STRAT
- The ObsidianWire HSH Wiring Harness
- Auto switch controls -
- 500k for humbuckers (full output & clarity)
- 250k for single coils (traditional Strat tone)
Auto split humbuckers - in Positions 2 + 4 (better balance with middle pickup)
When you move your switch into the mixed pickup positions the humbucker coils split (requires four conductor humbuckers), with one of them pairing up with the middle pickup for traditional Strat tone.
The Custom HSH Controls
1: Bridge Humbucker Full (500k // Tone 2)
2: Bridge Humbucker Split + Middle (250k // Tone 1)
3: Middle (250k // Tone 1)
4: Neck Humbucker Split + Middle (250k // Tone 1)
5: Neck (500k // Tone 2)
* Coil Splitting Requires Four Conductor Neck + Bridge Pickups
THE BUILD
We have a small team of people that love crafting Pro-Wired Electronics and we take pride in producing the absolutes best. We use custom specified parts, perfected techniques, and hand test to ensure that your harness will be an upgrade for your guitar, from factory model to custom shop.
CRYSTAL CLEAR TONE
To make your tone crystal clear at lower volumes we also include an ObsidianWire Custom Spec Treble Bleed Mod. This prevents tone 'muddiness' at low volumes by allowing high frequencies to pass along a separate path to your amp, rather than being stopped short by the increasing resistance at the volume control.
