I've put Blackguards into a Baja Tele - that has an S1 switch for the volume control. I just disconnected the old pickups and wired the BKPs into the same holes. The soldering was a bit fiddly, ok, VERY fiddly, but no great problems (and I'm not the world's tidiest user of a soldering iron! :lol:).

Good luck :D

It should be fine so long as you get the colour coding right!

Just remember to ask BKP for the extra wire for the S1 system - if the HSS has an extra wire that is!
