[Tech] HOW TO: The reversible 18v mod!

mmotorsport · 10-02-2008, 12:54 AM

I just did this mod on my new ec-1000 with dual 81's. I love what it did for the bridge pickup but the neck pickup has seemed to loose all of its jazzy tone. I can barely tell the difference when i switch between the two. any one ever had this happen

it should be possible to run your bridge pup off of 18v and then wire your neck pup to run off of 9v. i wouldnt dare try to make a diagram for yall, considerin i dont have the right crayons lol

but it should be possible

Hey can someone confirm whether this wiring diagram will work.

Its using a push pull pot (DPDT switch) in the middle of the diagram, the advantage of which in 9V the batteries drain equally.

Cheers
