push/pull knob for standard JP6

[MusicManJP6]

But I'm not sure how good these p'ups are on their own. Most pickups don't really sound great when split and they'll pick up hum.

That's exactly why I was not keen on replacing too many parts (the push/pull pot is a given). If they are noisy as all get out i most likely wouldn't be real fond of the setup. Let me know if you find a way to wire it up with the stock switch and have sound in the middle position as well!

I wouldn't be too worried about replacing switches, pots, etc. It's easy enough to wire them back later and they're not visible.

As for noise- if you split them they'll effectively be single coils. So the noise will be like any other single coil noise. With a clean sound, not so bad. With medium to heavy gain, they'll be very noisy.

I've dropped the idea

NOOOO!!!
THAT WOULD GET ME GASSING EVEN MORE!
I would be gassing on something that I was already gassing on xD...

Gassing on something you're already gassing - GENIUS!!!

Congratulations for starting the new JP push/pull craze Phazer! I'd like to join the club and pass the gas as it were.

It'd be a little tricky as using the standard approach of grounding each coil might give you no sound in the middle position, but there are a few options there.

Do you think it's possible to split like this without some sort of relay?

And funny thing is, neither me or musicman jp6 has done the mod
but I change idea every day, so one day I might just open a post to tell you I've done the mod
