Hello everyone..

I need help.. I have a Telecaster (alder Rosewood fingerboard) guitar with Jb Jr in bridge. and I love that sound which Jb makes. On the other hand i was wishing to have a vintage sound in neck thats why i bought STR-1 for neck

Problem is;

1-I have 500k pots and those pots are some much for STR-1

2- in second switch position where two pups should mix.. Neck pup is dominating so much..

3-I bought that guitar from someone and that guy told me that i should re-install some capacitors as he has taken off them..1-How can i make the STR-1 hotter without changing the pots?
2-What can i do in switching to be able to obtain a balanced mix in second switch?
3-Which capacitors should i use and how many? and where? considering the specialities of the guitar..

And a last question.. If you were having a tele with Jb Jr bridge.. What would be the neck PUP that you could choose.. and which pots and capacitors would you use?..

Thank you...

Hi Istanbul,

Welcome to the forum. Firstly, you either have, in your Telecaster's bridge position, a Lil 59 or a HOt Rails model. Duncan doesn't make a JB jr. for Telecaster. Second, both the LIL 59 and the Hot Rails will probably be a little too hot for the STR-1. You might look to a lower output bridge pickup or a hotter neck pickup. Also, even with the single coil-size humbuckers, the standard pot value is still 250k.

Hello Butch..

This Pup is Jb Jr... Its edge was cut and reformed for fitting to a TELE... I know that it sounds strange but i have seen that pup

The reason i bought STR-1 was combining two worlds... Bridge should scream and neck should cut the drive and give a bluesy sound.. Somehow i managed but as you have read i have problems..

Which bridge pup would you prefer in a Telecaster to combine with STR-1 ??

or Which neck pup would you prefer in a Telecaster to combine with Jb Jr

Thanks..
