Series Parallel Loom For Jazz Bass PIO
A Jazz Bass Harness With PIO (Paper In Oil) Capacitor And Mono Jack Socket Inspired By A Seymour Duncan Schematic
A reverse view image:
Have you ever wondered whether you can get more out of your single coil pickups on your bass guitar. This modification, which was inspired by the Seymour Duncan schematic shown above allows you to select:
Solo Bridge pickup
Bridge and Neck pickups (standard parallel wiring) slightly scooped sounding
Solo Neck pickup
but also
Bridge and Neck pickups (series wiring) this position turns both pickups into one massive Humbucker. Result: increased output with a boost in mid range taking away the sharpness in treble. Please note in Series mode (where the knob is pulled out) ooer Missus... it then acts as main volume.
This is the mid range model with PIO (Paper In Oil) capacitor.
NOTE
This loom only works with single coil pickups (Jazz style) or split P (Precision style)
The surrounding cardboard frame which the loom arrives in may not always resemble the one in the pictures...
