Hi there,
I'm a first time poster on the forum but have been lurking for a little while. I thought I'd sign up as I've found myself in a bit of trouble with some wiring.
I recently bought a new Boss set bridge pickup for my Telecaster to go with the Mississippi Queen P90 I have in the neck position. Last night I wired in the bridge all good and proper but when I came to try out the middle position I was getting a very hollow tone from the pickups(or 'quacky' as some people like to describe it) so I'm figuring that the pickups are out of phase. I reversed the wires on the bridge pickup so that they were going to the opposite solder points as I'd read somewhere that doing this can remedy the problem. I found that it just cancelled out the bridge pup altogether! :?
So..... I am wondering whether it is worth trying the same method with the P90? by reversing the wires? Could this work?
I know some people like the out of phase sound you can get but it's really not to my tastes.
It might be worth noting that I have it wired with a 4-way switch. I also have a ground wire going from the volume pot to the back of the bridge plate(I had to do this as the last pickup I had was pretty noisy!)
Any help would be great!
Thanks!
