Single Humbucker wiring.

3 pots for what... vol/vol/tone? is it a 4-conducter pickup?

If so, you can wire is up just like a Jazz Bass...

You can buy all the supplies you need at DOZENS of easily accessible places... I'd probably recommend you try Stew-Mac... they have Jazz Bass wiring kits.

 

I did a similar setup with a bass, I used a vol vol tone, but the first volume had a switch to put the two coils in series. So from one 4 wire humbucker, I was able to get both coils split, both coils parallel, and both coils in series. I used a Jazz bass with a series switch schematic. It should be pretty easy to find.

 

I just setup a MM pickup using one of the 4-way rotary switches Sheldon Dingwall has... it's laid out Vol/Tone/Switch, and the switch gives you neck single/both series/both parallel/bridge single. I *love* those switches.

 

Can you tell much difference between the neck single and the bridge single? I recently set up a MM (in the standard MM position, not up against the bridge) with series/parallel/single, but I was wondering whether it might be worth it to wire it V/V with a series/parallel push/pull. Think that would be worth the trouble?

Also, did you use a resistor to compensate for the increased output in the series mode?

 

There is a noticable difference... the neck coil is more bass-y, and the bridge coil is more midrange-y. Technical terms, I know...

 

I would either wire it up like a standard Jazz bass, or I would get one of those 4-way switches so you could have either coil separately, or together in either series or parallel.
