Description: ToneShaper Wiring Kit, Stratocaster, Modern (SSS2) Modern WiringThis wiring is called "modern" because Fender began using it in the 1980s, as opposed to the 1950s. The original Stratocaster wiring had a master volume control, a tone control for the neck pickup, and a tone control for the middle pickup. There was no tone control for the bridge pickup, since it was assumed that a player would preset his two rhythm settings (neck and middle pickups), but that the lead setting (bridge pickup) need not be adjustable, but should be wide open for maximum brilliance. Remember that during those early years, Fender never supported a 5-way switch. All Stratocasters from 1954 until 1977 shipped with a 3-way switch. In later years, Fender made some changes to the wiring to meet player demands. These included attaching the bridge pickup to the bottom tone control, a no-brainer for many players who felt that if any pickup should allow for some treble roll-off, it was the bridge pickup. Also, the capacitor value on the tone control was changed to .022µF, which means that the tone controls provided less extreme tonal shifts than when a heavier cap was used (the earliest Strats came with a .1µF cap, which produced a very substantial tonal shift as the tone controls were adjusted; this value was changed to .05µF (.047µF) in the early 1960s). This kit includes everything you need to wire a Stratocaster with modern wiring (refer to the images above for a switching diagram). It includes the finest components, from the same suppliers that the large U.S. guitar companies have used for decades: (1) Capacitor, .022µF Orange Drop (1) Jack, Switchcraft 1/4" Mono (3) Pot, CTS 250k Audio (1/4" Bushing Length) (1) Screw for Shielding Ground Lug (1) Shielding Ground Lug (1) Switch, 5-Way, CRL (1) Treble Bleed Kit for Single-Coils 3' Wire, 22 AWG Cotton Push Back w/ Tinned Overcoat, Black 3' Wire, 22 AWG Cotton Push Back w/ Tinned Overcoat, White 3' Wire, 22 AWG Stranded Silver-Plated Copper, Black PTFE 3' Wire, 22 AWG Stranded Silver-Plated Copper, White PTFE Professional, Fully-Illustrated Wiring Diagram ToneShaper Wiring Kit, Stratocaster, Modern (SSS2) Modern Wiring This wiring is called "modern" because Fender began using it in the 1980s, as opposed to the 1950s.
