![]() You could set them up to be humcancelling if they are not already which they probably arent, flip one of the magnets over and change where the leads coming off the coil are attached- changes the grounded lead for hot and hot for ground, with the pickups placed top to top they should attract each other magnetically. I wouldnt nessesarily put the lower ohm one in the neck- ohms really dont have much meaning unless you know more about the coil. Looks like one of them might have a problem which you could only be sure of using an inductance meter. If they were wound the same they should be between 6 and 7K apiece. I got your email- these pickups are almost identical to the "coodercaster" gold foil pickups- at least internally they are. As far as resale goes I will never sell it so I"m not set on keeping the stock electronics I just want it to sound as good as it can for a cheap knock around guitar ![]() I know that tiesco pretty much just threw in what ever was laying around pot and cap wise so I guess I"m wondering if I do replace anything should I use the schematic values or whats actually in the guitar. the wiring just looks shoddy to me and since i'm not sure where the problem is I don't know it just needs to be resoldered or if there is a bad part I really don't have enough knowledge to figure it out on my own. TEISCO DEL REY GUITAR PARTS CRACKEDthe body appears to be multiple pieces with a top and bottom veneer finish is super cracked and has some dings in it but i don't think I'd ever get it refinished fret wear is minimal except at the zero fret where I'd say it still acceptable. Supposedly the t is for tremolo mine is the same but in a sunburst with a fixed bridge the pickups do look different but from the one other pic i have been able to find are correct. I am the son of an electrician and should probably be ashamed of myself for feeling like such a moron. Also do the "screws" on the pickup actually do anything or are they just there to make it look like a humbucker" they are attached to a plate that holds the magnet in but I can't see how they would make a difference should i just adjust them so they look tidy and throw on some lock tite(I found one of the screws under the cover sticking to the magnet). TEISCO DEL REY GUITAR PARTS SERIESThoughts, comments? I'm wondering if I replaced the switches if Id be able to do anything else with it ie could it be wired so that the pups were hum canceling when both on? I'm assuming that that would be series and they are currently wired in parallel. I'm thinking that since the neck pickup has a slightly higher resistance I should actually put it in the bridge position? I'd like to know what you guys might recommend as replacement cap and pot values. These pots do work they were a little scratchy working them a bit seemed to get rid of that a few years ago I could spray them with some pot cleaner and I would think they'd work fine but I'm not attached to them in any way I'd like to keep the guitar for sentimental reasons I have no illusions that it's worth anything I'd like it to sound halfway decent if possible. ![]() So the schematic shows that Both the volume and tone pots should be 500k I'm not quite sure what I'm looking at should the cap be where it is between the pots or should it be somewhere between the tone pot and the input?
