Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Q: Will this set fit my SSS Stratocaster?
  A: It will only fit a Stratocaster that has a larger "humbucker" route in the bridge position. You will also need an HSS-specific pickguard.
• Q: Is this set "noiseless"?
  A: The bridge humbucker is hum-canceling, as are switch positions 2 and 4. The neck and middle single-coils will have some vintage 60-cycle hum when used alone.
• Q: Can the humbucker be coil-split?
  A: Yes, the bridge humbucker has 4-conductor wiring and is ready for coil-splitting with a push-pull pot or a separate mini-toggle switch.
• Q: Is the humbucker balanced with the single-coils?
  A: Yes. The moderate output and warm Alnico 2 magnet were specifically chosen to balance well with the single-coils, preventing a harsh volume jump.
• Q: What potentiometer values should I use for an HSS set?
  A: A 500kΩ volume pot is common to keep the humbucker bright, often paired with a 250kΩ tone pot for the single-coils. Please consult our wiring diagrams for options.
