Hi Ive completed the strat lovers mod as per J. Atchleys design and my guitar sounds great!! however there is a really loud and unpleasant popping sound whenever i use the selector switch or either of the pot switches. What could this be caused by??
Also with the volume pot switch out, the bridge position on the 5 position switch is silent and with the neck tone switch out then neck postion is silent. Slightly confounded....
Cheers
Matt

John has red lines showing the internal connections of the switches when they are in the normal position. If you wired those connection indicated in red, you would get the problems you described. Remove the wires that are making those connections. Cheers, Unk |

Take a look at the internal working of your 5-way, if you can... my one was giving me grief, but i just opened it up tweaked some bits of metal so that they made better contact, and hey presto it was fixed.
