Fender USA Stratocaster Wiring Loom
Hand-wired to order in the UK

These wiring looms are Individually hand-wired from UK-sourced genuine parts using 22 gauge Gavitt vintage cloth covered wire. A drop in replacement and a great performance and reliability upgrade for all Strats. Top quality matched components are used throughout and the "float wire" method is adopted where all wires are pulled tight and elevated so they make no contact with the pickguard. It takes a little longer to build but is definitely worth the effort to maximise performance

Incorporates:
  • Matched*  CTS USA Custom Audio Taper 250K Split Shaft Volume & Tone Potentiometers - smooth linear volume and tone change (no bunching or on/off effect)
  • 0.022uF Sprague "Orange Drop" Tone Capacitor** - removes the thinness and harshness inherent with budget capacitors
  • Oak Grigsby switches
  • Treble bleed volume mod (AKA Hendrix mod) prevents the loss of tone when reducing the volume 
  • Quality Jack Socket
  • Bridge earth wire supplied with heatshrink tube to twist join with exiting earth, solder and insulate
  • Easy to follow colour coded wiring diagram

Fully soldered together and includes all nuts screws and washers ready to fit to your guitar. Fitting requires only basic skills and 4 solder connections which are pre-tinned: Solder the black (Negative) pickup wires to the back of the Volume pot and the white (positive) wires to the colour coded switch terminals

*      Matched in-house to within 10 Ohms  (CTS pots tolerance is +/- 20% so a 250K pot can vary from 200-300 Ohms)

**     Now using the 715p version which is sonically superior to the commonly used 225p
