Just got a blend pot put in my strat... wow

I should've done this sooner. Mexi strat, blend pot between the neck and Pearly gates HB in the bridge.
Takes all the piercing frequencies out of the HB without losing definition, and adds FATNESS!
I also added a tonerider Hot Classic in the neck too. And now a universal tone control.
I can leave the EQ on the amp set now and do most of my EQ'ing on the strat.
In love.

Great result! Sometimes the smallest cheapest tweaks can be the difference between keeping a guitar or selling....even more so than changing pickups sometimes.
I've done a similar thing on my Tele with 3 pickups. 5 way switch with a blend pot to add some neck pickup when I'm in the bridge position, just takes the harshness out a bit. Works very well.

It's funny you say that cause I actually thought of getting a new Pickup, but I wont now. Did you mod it yourself?

I got one on my strat and it certainly makes a difference

Just found a diagram on google but was a bit of trail and error as well, I'm no expert that's for sure!

Yeah I just found one I thought was legit through google too. My guitar tech had never done one before so it was a bit hit and miss. But man I'm so happy the way it's turned out. Can't wait to record some new tones with it!
It also essentially means I can turn up a bit louder at gigs without taking peoples heads off haha
