I want to modify and improve the electronics of my Squier Stratocaster CV50 and would appreciate any ideas or help.

I have experience soldering components, but when it comes to guitar electronics, I've only done one Tom DeLonge Strat project, which was extremely simple to assemble.

The main modification of this project involves replacing the bridge pickup with an Oripure Hot Rails and splitting the coil to maintain a clear sound in that position. I'll also take this opportunity to change all the wiring, potentiometers, and the connector.

My idea is to put the push/pull potentiometer on a tone control (preferably the second one) to avoid accidentally pressing it while playing, but I can't find any specific diagrams.

​

The components I have in mind for this project are:

1 CTS A500k volume potentiometer

1 CTS A250k push-pull tone potentiometer

1 CTS A250k tone potentiometer

1 PureTone connector

1 Orange Drop capacitor 0,22 nF 100 V

1 22AWG push back wires vintage

​

My idea is to make a guitar with a slightly more rock-oriented sound, with a heavier tone in the bridge position, while still retaining some of the Stratocaster essence. If anyone has a wiring diagram showing the tone controls being used as push/pull switches, or if they have any ideas on how to achieve my goal, I would be very grateful.

Order placed with Oopbuy on 03/06 and received on 17/06 in Spain. Great service from oopbuy! If you'd like any product links, just ask! Cheers!

This is the breakdown of my 7.5 kg shipment to Spain. I didn't have a 30% discount coupon, otherwise it would have been cheaper. Even so, I don't think it's excessively expensive, and the agent handled everything very quickly. It's not because many people complain; in my case, the service was good.

I'm about to make my first shipment and I'd like to know which shipping company is the best. I'm doing rehearsal and I've chosen the shipping method shown in the photo. The package weighs 7 kg, contains two pairs of shoes without boxes, and the rest is clothing.

Is this shipping method secure? The shipment is for Spain.
