Hi,
thanks for coming in to my thread
I've got what's probably a simple question for all you guitar Gurus. I've Googled the living daylights out of the question and haven't been able to find a definitve answer.
First about my guitar:
Squier Strat SE
SSS Pick ups
1 Volume
2 Tones
Basic Strat Wiring
Tone Split Mod
Bournes Premium Pots 250k
CRL 5 Way Switch
Neck P'up = 5.75
Mid P'up = "RWRP" 5.75
Bridge P'up = 5.75.
Electrical Modifications:
Treble bleed = .0015 uf /.100k
Tone Split Circuit = "Knob 1"
Adjusts Neck & Middle p'ups. Running 250k audio potentiometer with .022 capacitor.
"Knob 2"
Adjusts Bridge p'up. Running 250k audio potentiometer with .047 capacitor.
So after all that data, here's whats probably a simple question.
The middle (RWRP) pick up is louder than the neck and/or bridge pick up. I know that it's not a hardwire fault as I've "dis" and "re" assembled the guitar three times. Each time with new components which were tested good with a D.M.M. before installation.
So, I know that it's a normal condition.
My question is: Why is the "RWRP" more sensitive than a normally wound pick up?
Thanks for assuaging my curiosity.
