schotness Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Another question for you all Is it possible to wire a pickup, for example a slimbucker (well actually quite specifically a kent armstrong slimbucker) directly to a 1/4 amp plug without damaging the pickup or amp ? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-theory Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schotness Posted April 15, 2008 Author Share Posted April 15, 2008 Thanks Not knowing a great deal about electronics, I thought the pots might provide some resistance or protective function rather than just volume etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-theory Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Nope. It's a throttle control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sollophonic Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I know that many Esquire players take that particular guitar a stage further that is is, by directly wiring the one pickup to the jack, and bypassing the controls. I plan to make my own version of this as a project, and have a simple slab Tele body, mated to a plain maple neck, and have nothing else on the body apart from bridge/pickup assembly, and jack socket in its usual place. No scratchplate, no pots, no control plate. Totally stripped down Esquire!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-theory Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I'd be completely lost w/o my throttle control. I ride it constantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schotness Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 my throttles will be the controls on this, http://www.korg.co.uk/products/effects/pandora_px5d/fx_px5d.asp velcroed to the back of this http://www.thomann.de/gb/tenayo_sw300_silent.htm just below the neck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
