Strat HSS Metric (Alpha Switch)
Note: Treble Bleed Capacitor is optional, you can skip it or ignore it from the wiring diagram if you don't need it. Alpha Lever Switch is used, make sure that you are using the same switch before wiring.
2 Wire Humbucker
4 or 5-Wire Humbucker
Matched Load/Balanced Circuit
Balanced Circuit is when a single resistor is used to link the single coil connection on the switch to ground in the design sample shown below. Your neck and bridge humbuckers will see the correct value thanks to the use of three 500k pots in this circuit. The 499k resistor guarantees that the pickup reads 250k instead of 500k while in single coil mode. Simply solder the switch's resistor to the back of the pot closest to it.
