Obsidian Wire Custom HSS / HSH for Strat® Gen 2

Description: Quick and easy install without touching a soldering iron. ObsidianWire builds Pro-Wired Electronics for guitar and bass, with super sturdy and easy to use solder-less connectors. That means that you can install your new wiring harness, or do solder-less pickup changes, without having to set aside much more time than a string change. When building a Strat with a humbucker in the bridge position, and two single coils for the middle and neck positions respectively, there is always a toss-up between choosing 500k controls which will retain the life of a humbucker, or 250k controls which will tame the harsh highs that are inherent in single coils. We say 'why choose?'. The ObsidianWire Custom HSS has some clever wiring, which harnesses the power of a 5-way superswitch, and a couple of extra resistors to add new life to your humbucker, as it sees the 500k controls that it deserves. Move through the switch positions it and automatically switches back to 250k for the middle and neck pickups so you still get the full and clear rhythm and spank that Stratocasters® are famous for. Furthermore, when you move your switch into the second position the humbucker coils split with one of them pairing up with the middle pickup for a traditional second position Strat tone. To take advantage of this feature you will need a four conductor bridge pickup which is standard issue for many modern and even vintage re-production releases. 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.
