Description

Hoagland Custom is a guitar custom shop located in Fernandina Beach, Florida. We are a DIY based shop, that is, we carry a TON of parts and tools for the do-it-yourselfer.

This is a complete “Stevie Ray Vaughan” Stratocaster style 1 volume, 2 tone control, 5-way lever switch wiring harness kit. It includes everything that you need (aside from the soldering gun) to build a very high quality wiring harness for your SRV Strat or other 1 volume, 2 tone control Strat style guitar.

KIT COMPONENTS:

• 1 – 250k CTS or Bourns Pro Series audio taper, short-shaft (3/8″ or 9mm) volume control
• 2 – 250k CTS or Bourns Pro Series linear taper, short-shaft (3/8″ or 9mm) tone controls
• 1 – .022 value Sprague “Orange Drop” capacitor
• 1 – 5-way lever style switch
• 1 Switchcraft output jack
• 3′ of vintage style, cloth-covered wire (18″ each of black and white)
• a detailed, easy to understand wiring diagram (not a technical sheet)
• a generous amount of solder

AVAILABLE CAPACITOR UPGRADES:

• Sprague “Orange Drop” poly capacitor, as standard & no additional cost
• MojoTone Dijon Premium Foil/Film capacitor, $2 upgrade (From the manufacturer: “Mojotone Dijon capacitors are high quality foil/film capacitors made to our exact specification. We like to call them musical capacitors because of their good tone and transparency.”)
• Tai Han “Black Bee” paper-in-oil capacitor, $8 upgrade
• Vitamin T “Silver Barrel” paper-in-oil capacitor, $11 upgrade
• Auricap XO “Hi-Res” Sonically Transparent capacitor, $20 ea. upgrade. (From the manufacturer: “Auricap XO capacitors feature high-end engineering for unprecedented quality. Each 21 gauge lead contains 19-strands, and each strand is continuously cast in a vacuum, resulting in only 1 crystal barrier per foot (as opposed to the thousands in standard wire). The lead is then cryogenically treated and wrapped in red cross-linked polyethylene, resulting in permanently superior wire construction, throughput, and quality.”)

SWITCHING POSITIONS WITH THIS WIRING HARNESS KIT:

• P1 – Bridge pickup only (no tone control – raw bridge pickup tone)
• P2 – Middle (lower tone control) & bridge pickups (no tone control – raw bridge pickup tone)
• P3 – Middle pickup only (lower tone control)
• P4 – Neck & middle pickups (independent tone control)
• P5 – Neck pickup only (upper tone control)

While all of our pickup & wiring solutions & kits are built to be installed rather easily by most do-it-yourselfers, we always recommend that you have a guitar professional at your local guitar shop install them for you.

This SRV Strat style wiring harness kit is not considered complex and should not be difficult for a beginning DIY’er.
