- I love taking off pickguards and having a nosey inside. I've done this with all my guitars as I need to know what's going on inside.

Overall, I think the Mustang is very impressive on the electrical side of things.

You earned yourself a sub for this video series. Beyond informative!
Thanks man. I appreciate it a lot.
I was surprised by the good quality too. Even the Japanese Fender Mustangs I had all came with small pots.
soulagent79 I'll be making the updated review video tomorrow. We'll see what I've done and how she plays now
What are the chances of changing the pickups so they have separate wires from each coil so you can do coil spiting by changing one of the pots to add a push pull selection for the split. Is the body deep enough to accommodate the push pull pot? Which pickups would recommend that would give a sweet sound for solo leads and still OD and distortion quality with minimum hum? Cheers good vids. Thanks!
Anyone know why Squiers are wired with the pickup output wire (from the switch) going to the pot wiper?
i love your vids mate :)
Thanks Drew!
Hi! Question friend, where those 2 or 4 wire pickups? I couldn't quite see. Thanks for the vids; you helped me decide to get a stang too. Keep on keepin' on!
Hi Matty, they are two wire pickups. They COULD be split but you'd need to get inside it to get to the 4 wires. Not an easy task
i always use a hand drill and screw-driver
Are these humbuckers both F- spaced ? Thanks.
How many wires have the pickups?
Is possible to switch the pickups to single coil mode?
Greetings from Barcelona.
The pickups only have 2 wires. It's possible to open up the pickups and get access to the four wires but that's not a simple task. I have a video in the works so if you can hold off on that mod, I'll explain how to do it.
This video will be great!
Thanks for answering.
I changed the pickups in my mustang but I can't find any within diagrams. I'd like to keep this box title of pickup selector. Does anybody know how these work?
Tabloid Junkie hi, i would love to help but I'm not sure what you're asking here
TheGuitarGeek the pickup selector on this mustang is the box style rather than the type of selector found on other guitars. It was 3 lil nubs in a row and then one in front. If you'd happen to know how exactly it's wired I'd be highly appreciative. Thank you for replying! A lot of youtubers ignore comments.
Tabloid Junkie I do my best to f reply to everyone. Please email me at Theguitargeekmail@gmail.com and I'll send you some diagrams
Do you know if Fenders locking tuners would fit on the headstock?
Yes they will fit perfectly.
will u make a summary video about everything u have done?
Aleksas Savickas yes I will. I'm going to play it like I did in the first video to show the differences.
The video is now available on my channel
Will you be changing the pickguard?
No, the quality is good and it's an unnecessary expense at the moment.
any electrical mods in mind?
Yeah, I've added a killswitch. That video is coming later today :)
TheGuitarGeek +sweet, any plans on swapping pickups too? those seem pretty good as is
No, I'm not swapping the pickups. I really don't think they need it. If this was to be my number 1 then yes I would but I will leave the stock pickups in. It has inspired me to maybe get a Fender Mustang at some point though.
250k for humbuckers? na get them swapped for 500k
Bad Motivator they sound good so I'm happy with them
I was thinking the same thing! 250k are for single coils?
