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.
Each and every Obsidian harness has been designed to give you a greater range of control with more useable dials, and allows you to achieve a greater range of sounds from your guitar with new wiring options and superb clarity. We only use the absolute best parts to build your new wiring harness, and we build them a little differently to make them extremely robust.
Built for Humbucker Loaded Stratocasters this harness features four modes:
- Mode 1: SSS / 250k For three single coils or most single coil sized humbuckers
- Mode 2: HSS / Intelligent Switching (auto switches between 250k & 500k)
- Mode 3: HHH / 500k For any pickup where more treble and output is required
- Mode 4: HSH / Intelligent Switching (auto switches between 250k & 500k)
Play Your Neck and Bridge pickups together: Use the Blender control to blend your bridge pickup in to the neck position and vice versa, for a Telecaster like clarity and punch.
Master Tone Control: Pure simplicity is achieved by using a master tone control for all three pickups. Use this to set your desired treble roll off, and use the 5-way switch to find your required tone.
