Fender Stratocaster LEFTY Harness BLENDER Upgrade! CTS-CRL-Switchcraft-Orange Drop!
Strat Blender Wiring is a unique and simple way to achieve multiple Strat pickup
configurations and tones without drilling holes for switches and push pull pots. It
uses a custom made CTS Blender Pot that acts as a True Bypass in the circuit
when turned completely clockwise. A regular pot wouldn’t work for this
application because you would still hear the other pickup bleed through. Here’s
how it works...
A Standard 5-Way Strat has 1 volume and 2 tones. The Blender wiring has 1
volume, 1 master tone, and a Blender pot. In the neck position you can blend the
bridge pickup in as much as you want. In the bridge position you can blend the
neck pickup in as much as you want. In positions 2 and 4 you can have all three
pickups on at once. The nicest part about it is the fact of it being so user friendly.

WHO WE ARE:
Starr Guitar Systems (SGS) owner Dave Starr has been playing guitar and bass professionally (WildeStarr, Vicious Rumors, and CHASTAIN) for over 30 years, and doing guitar repair for over 30 years as well. Dave has put his years of experience as a pro to come up with his own line of guitar & bass electronic upgrade systems. So, when you buy from Dave, you are not just buying gear from a guitar technician... you are buying gear from a PRO MUSICIAN who has been there and done that..... recorded over 15 albums, toured the world multiple times, MTV videos, artist endorsements (currently signed with ERNIE BALL strings and EMG pickups), etc. Every SGS unit comes with all of that experience behind it... what works and what doesn't, because Dave has pretty much seen and done it all. And, every SGS unit is custom built and assembled by hand one at a time by Dave here in his Houston Texas shop.
