Strat Hendrix wiring setup

Ancestor · 02-22-2008, 07:30 AM

Wow. A friend of mine is an electrical engineering student. My strat has been kinda effed up since I put the rails in it. It was OK, but the volume was scratchy, etc.

So I asked him if he could rewire it for me. He bought some fender parts and used the Hendrix wiring config. Really amazing sound. The p/u selector is backwards now, though. Ha!! It's cool. Works great. Bet a lefty would dig this.

What exactly is a Hendrix wiring setup?

Anyway, mine's been wired backwards for years, and now not only am I just used to it, I kind of dig the fact it looks like I get kickass fat bridge pickup tone out of my Strat.
