I've a lovely strat that is wired very 50's. Same polarity/wind middle pickup. (yes I'm one of the people that prefers that sound in positions 2&4) and the bridge pickup with no tone control.
I've been thinking of adding a small dummycoil. An electric mandolin pickup. Instead of wiring it from the volume to the switch output. I was thinking of putting it on the ground side of the circuit. Do you think it's worthwhile?
That guitar is specifically for very delicate, clean sounds. It's a very pretty sounding thing. I don't want to mess with that too much, hence the idea of wiring to the ground side.
Worthwhile venture? Suhr do something similar apparently. Though I see very little online about their tricks.
