$11 Ebay Guitar.
Part 1, The Ebay Guitar Wiring Mods!
Spending $11 on an Ebay Guitar ! Fingers crossed it is a fixer upper. The Ebay Guitar wiring Mods will transform it and I should have a fairly good axe. :) This electric guitar is an ION brand and was sold as a cheap guitar when new.
In the first episode I dismantle the Guitar and do a few minor modifications to the guitar wiring. I’ll add a Humbucker Pickup in the bridge position (Cheap Hotrail Pickup) and an off/on switch for the neck pickup. The neck pickup switch will give a fuller sound and allow for the neck to be turned on when the bridge pickup is also on. The humbucker have a split switch that will provide the ability to cut the humbucker in half, as a result, the pickup will be closer to the same output as the other pickups.
There’s a wiring diagram you can download from GuitarHack absolutely *FREE* .
