Hey everyone,
I finally picked up the Telecaster for a while. I just got back to A'dam in July and didn't play it much.
I thought the bridge position sounded off. The neck was WAY louder and yet screwed all the way down while the PD was screwed all the way up. It was also a little thin.
I took the wiring apart last night and re-did it with the original HW1 bridge pickup.
I get a much beefier tone on the bridge position and the mixed positions now make a lot more sense.
I tried to measure the PD with a multimeter but it didn't give me any reading at all. It did give me a sound while it was in, but right now no reading. I get no continuity reading between the wires nor between the solder blobs on the pickup.
Anybody can think of what's up with it? Unfortunately I'd installed it at a time I was quite busy so I didn't notice it much before, or I had so little experience with Teles anyway I wouldn't really have thought it weird. I think I bought it in early May or late April? Can't remember.
