Re: Strat wiring question

So. Forgot about this post. What i was looking for was to have push pull pots to tap neck and bridge buckers as well as 3rd push pull to activate bridge pup at any time. Almost there. Still needs a little setup. Ah. What you said earlier was two push pull pots to tap neck and bridge buckers and a t...
