I love 4-ways on Telecasters! I’d never heard of this mod until I tried a Baja Tele at a GC in the States. It’s like getting a middle humbucker, without losing any of the regulat Tele tones.

Great tip with the tape!

I hope all of these short, mod videos end up sucking up millions of views, subscriptions and likes. I found your channel while looking for Telecaster pickup information a couple years ago. Your camera angles and explanations have gotten so damn good. Great resource material 🤘🎸

oh hey thanks! the full videos can be very long, so I thought I'd break up all the important parts into small chunks. they should be helpful over time. cheers!

My dad taught me an amazing trick if you're concerned about wearing away wooden screw holes. Take a small piece of a toothpick and place it in the hole where you're going to be placing the screw. Make sure it's just long enough to where it won't be coming through the top. Toothpicks are great where they're tapered on the ends so you don't need a very long piece. Just a little one. And that's it! Just screw the screw the screw the screw...(I'll stop) back in and you're done! It holds very well, particularly if you're working with really soft or not very dense woods.

I rewired my black Tele 3 years ago with a premium kit that included a 4-way switch and it's still going strong; the tele neck pickup shorted out so I replaced it with a Strat pickup and now it's been swapped for a P90 that fattens up the series mode with the retained bridge pickup and I love it!

@landonbailey 2 года назад

Nice! I should do a p90 neck some day

@mr.mcmagpie6606 Год назад

Did you add a metal/Nickel cover to the strat or p90 pickup? Considering that's the wire that needs to go to the switch...

@b.rodclark7349 Год назад

@@mr.mcmagpie6606 no. You don't necessarily have to have that extra ground wire unless you have a metal cover to solder it to.

@Shaun.Stephens 2 года назад

Great video, thanks. My MrGlyn Cruel Mistress pickups are wired with two conductor shielded wire, the shield is grounded to the pickup cover and soldered to the black wire at the other end. So it's easy to just unsolder them where they're joined (in the control cavity) and then insert them in the correct places in the ObsidanWire connector block.

@landonbailey 2 года назад

I haven't heard of that brand. nice!

@Shaun.Stephens 2 года назад

@@landonbailey They're hand wound in New Zealand, it's a small one-man business. He does two Telecaster sets, the ones I have (Cruel Mistress) are the 'hot' ones. Google will find him if you're interested. The Cruel Mistress are demoed on youtube somewhere... Just found it for you. :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-O-9aoAWotVA.html

@mr.mcmagpie6606 Год назад

Blowing on hot solder creates a 'cold joint'.. which will give you a matte looking finish and possibly not have a solid connection to the wire in the joint(ie: be able to pull out/wiggle arround)

@jimbaaab 11 месяцев назад

Thanks, man. Just about to attempt this 🤞

@dejavoodoo7204 2 года назад

dave onorato suggested to use velcro for that string seperation hack, but your tape method looks as effective + we all have a bit of tape laying aboot. cool mod too🤘

@landonbailey 2 года назад

Great tip! ya the tape left some residue on the strings

@robertpowell7319 2 года назад

Blowing on it does two things. One good and one not-so-good. Blowing will help prevent you from inhaling the fumes. It also has potential of prematurely cooling off the solder joint.

@landonbailey 2 года назад

that sucks!

3:20 - First, thank you for not saying "heighth".. it's stupid. Also, I've literally soldered many thousands of connections, and have never found any issue with blowing on them. Maybe it's because I exclusively use SN63 solder, as opposed to the common (kinda lousy, imho) SN60 aka 60/40 stuff.

I wanted to update my MIM Telecaster, but wasn’t sure what pickups I wanted and how hard it would be to solder. I watched some of your videos and ended up taking the easy way with the Obsidian 4 way, paired with Vintage style pickups. My Tele never sounded so good. Thanks for the videos!

@nocturnal101ravenous6 2 года назад

Nice love the tutorial, great job Also would love to see you hit up Stew Mac or Dragonfire to make your own custom pickup sets. Try some DImarzio's Strat - True Velvet, Area sets, and for Tele they have the true velvet, Area sets.

Dude I was struggling struggling with my obsidian four way. I had my second neck ground going to what gets clipped Upon further inspection tone rider has a small amount of solder there for this mod. I’m at a point where I just don’t want to play guitar but how to fix, set up etc… thank you

I'm pulling some squire Tele pickups to solder on push back wire ..I figure it will make a small improvement..

i saw a video for a series mod on a jaguar where they snipped the ground and added wire to the bridge pickup? any reason it would be different as opposed to the neck pickup on this tele?
