Wiring Jazz in Series?

[hooky_lowdown]

I'm wanting to wire my jazz in series, for more beefy sound and more output. Not fussed about versatility as I usually have both pups on full anyway.

 

Is there a diagram to use for a V/V/T loom in series? I know I need to wire the the two pups together. 😎

Find a pot with switch first, then you can have series and that common parallel - with no extra holes.

One of these ?S1 Switch

 

I have a  US Jazz with an S1 switch. It works a treat.

Looking for series only, don't require series/parallel.

Connect neck pickup hot to bridge pickup ground.  That now functions as a single pickup - wire it like a P bass.

I've done this mod on my Rebellion Jazz Bass : It's the top of versatility as you get that classic tone with both pickups working in parallel (standard wiring), but also the same in series, meaning you can use each volume independently on both positions, and that's really useful.

 

A very clever design.

 

That said put a push-push instead of a push-pull, it's a real game changer.

Make sure you credit Cadfael for their excellent diagrams (there's a whole book of them online) - unless you are Cadfael, that is...

Do they have one for a series only V/V/T loom?

Scratch all of what I wrote, just so that I understand, you want the equivalent of the above, but as if the push/pull is always in series mode?

Nope. No push/pull or series/parallel.

 

I'm looking for a diagram which is Series only using V/V/T wiring?

I'm not explaining myself well here.  No switch or push pull - the wires that go to the switch in the diagram permanently wired as if the switch (which will no longer be there) is in series mode.  Yes?

I'm out - just get @KiOgon to do it

Well, you tried

[Hellzero]

There you go @hooky_lowdown.

 

This schematic from Cadfael works for 2 Jazz Bass pickups too or whatever type you want.

Thank you. Just need to brush up on my German now. 👍
