This wiring provides seven different pickup combinations and "two-channel switching" in any regular stratocaster by replacing one of the tone controls by push-push potentiometer.
So, in the end of this mod, you'll have a master volume, a master tone and this "magic potentiometer" that enhances your strat's tone versatility.

BLEND CONTROL EXPLAINED:
This provides you two extra pickup combinations:
Bridge + Neck (this takes your stratocaster to the telecaster territory)
Bridge + Middle + Neck (the best "Sweet home Alabama" tone ever!)
The cool part of this mod is that you can dial the amount of the extra pickup you want to add in your regular combination. It works like this:
If you're in the Neck or Neck + Middle positions, you can add gradually the amount of the Bridge pickup in those combinations.
And if you're in the Bridge or Bridge + Middle positions, you can add gradually the amount of the Neck pickup in those combinations.
So, if you want to have Neck + Middle + 50% of the bridge pickup, you got it! If you want Bridge + 30% of the Neck pickup, you got it!
BLOWER SWITCH EXPLAINED:
I’m sure you’ve heard of a “blower switch” before, so you’ve probably seen where I’m going with this. It’s a fairly simple mod that gives you an extra "channel" on the guitar. When the blower switch is disengaged, the guitar behaves as normal with all controls performing in the normal way. But when you turn the blower switch ON, volume and tone controls are bypassed, and pickups signal is connected straight to the jack. It’s like turning the volume and tone controls all the way up with an extra pinch of treble frenquencies.
In this video, I dialed my amp in order to get a "solo tone" with my guitar's volume and tone controls on 10. Let's call it my "solo channel". Than I rolled down the volume and tone knobs in order to get a mellow and less distorted tone in order to get my "rythm channel".
An that's it! When I push the pot, it switches between my rythm and solo "channels".
Please let me know if you have any questions about it in the comments section or send me an e-mail!
Take care and spread love and tone!
