HSS Strat Wiring Tutorial

In this tutorial I show how to wire a Strat with the HSS (humbucker, 2 single coils) set up using a Strat superswitch to coil split the humbucker.

The HSS Strat setup confuses many people because the aim is to find the right combination of 250k/500k pots and 0.022/0.047 capacitors.

In this setup I actually use both - and 470k resistors added to the circuit trick the single coils into seeing 250k volume and the humbucker 500k volume.
