Ok guys I'll start by saying I'm very new to this modding lark!
I have an RG270 but wish to
upgrade the
pickups to give more power/tone/sustain etc. I have the pickups already (K.A. wpu's for the RG's HSH combi) and on recommendation elsewhere bought an Allparts 5-way 2-pole switch. Thinking I maybe should've gone 4-pole now but nevermind, I paid £10-odd for it so will use that for now.
My question is what will be the best way to wire these new pickups to a standard (Allparts) 5-way switch? Should I go for series or parallel wiring? I play rock/heavy rock and long for more sustain (granted the, albeit replacement, licensed trem and thin neck won't do wonders for it) especially on the higher frets as even with much distortion the higher notes just die quickly.
Not sure how the RG270 is wired as standard (2 cables per standard humbucker I believe, the KA's will have 4 each). I've tried looking up info etc but it's all pretty confusing and nothing much seems that simple.
This is currently the best guitar I have playability-wise so I have to give these pickups a go - your advice or recommendations are very welcome!!
