  1. Pickups & wiring
    The RG in question is HSH, Evos and a True Velvet in the middle. My YM50 5-way switch is gone, I wanted a CRL but I couldn't find one ina short notice. So I wired a Schaller Megaswitch type ''S'' The wiring was standard RG with an additional neck (or bridge) pup splitting using the Push/pull...
  2. Gear, Equipment, Recording & Off Topic
    Hi everyone, I'm about to start a project on my Japanese '93. RG 470. The stock pickups were changed to Evolution neck and bridge with True Velvet single coil. Now I have ordered the V-Treb treble bleed circuit for it, and I want to split the neck pickup using the 500k push-pull pot on volume...

    I've been doing some research in order to add another 4 possible positions to my pu selector as in the EGEN 8 and 18 in my guitar (RG350) but I have some questions. 1. Can it be made using the Grigsby Superswitch instead the VLX91? 2. Do i need to also replace the pickups, or can i keep the...
  4. Ibanez JEM, UV, JS & Other Signature Models
    Hey everyone, So I went down to a local tech who I have used in the past to discuss having my JS 900 upgraded to have the switching options of a JS1000, i.e volume switch high pass filter and tone control coil split. We got talking and he suggested the idea of leaving the high pass filter as...

  9. Pickups & wiring
    I swapped in a set of DiMarzio Breed pickups into a two-pickup, five-way (GEA5) switch-equipped guitar last night. Used a Dimarzio-supplied wiring diagram. Everything works EXCEPT for position #4 which coil splits them both. I double checked the wiring and even swapped out a pot with no luck...

    Hi, I would like to wire my pickups with a 3-way toggle switch. I want neck-coilsplit-bridge. I have checked around and I found that the Dimarzio switch ep1111 (4pdt) works (JPM wiring). But I also found a wiring diagram on Dimarzios webpage, can't post a link cause' this is my first post. But...

  12. Pickups & wiring
    Hi guys I just changed the pickups and replaced all the electronics in my rg550 today to an evolution set and a ym 50 switch with standard rg/Jem h-s-h wiring but I'm having issues. In the 2nd and 4th positions, the coils aren't splitting in the humbuckers. I used a dimarzio wiring diagram but...

    Hi, first time poster, long time lurker :) I have a nice SZ520 that I really like, but now I'm wanting the guitar to reach its full potential. I have a Seymour Duncan Jazz/JB set that I want to install, and also a new tone pot as the old one was scratchy. I'm pretty new to guitar modifications...
  14. Pickups & wiring
    I know that itwa sprobably asked a million times, but I wasn't able to find the answer using search, google, or pickups resource thread. I replace stock V7V8 in my RGA121 with Air Norton / TZ. I have a schematic from Ibanez, but Ibanez and Dimarzio colour coding does not match. The pickups...

  17. Pickups & wiring
    I've got an S5470 with a Tone Zone, True Velvet middle, and Air Norton. My output jack just broke, so I figured while I'm back in there with the soldering iron, maybe it's time to set up a coil split function. I just ordered the push/pull pot from the JS1200 and EGEN 18, but now I need to...
