Description
Hoagland Custom, located in sunny Fernandina Beach, Florida, has specialized in custom guitar wiring and pickup making for over 25 years…
& we love what we do!
This a REVERSE-WIRED Tele “All The Toys” wiring harness. That is, it is (from the neck side to the bridge side) Volume – Tone – Switch. The switch is at the bottom of the harness.
This Tele wiring harness (shown with Vitamin Q cap) has ALL THE TOYS built right into it!
Phase-reversing? YES! Series/Parallel? YES!
It is shown with an optional paper-in-oil capacitor.
This Tele wiring solution has 4-way switching that provides series/parallel wiring AND a HIGH QUALITY CTS push/pull volume pot that gives you, with a simple pull of the knob, phase-reversing of the pickups giving you a very cool, inside out sounding, “squawky” tone…
Series/parallel with the 4-way switch.
Phase-reversing with the high quality CTS push/pull volume pot.
