I designed this wiring configuration to maximize the awesomeness of Lace Sensors.

I use it with Gold Sensors but don't see why Reds couldn't work either. Basically, it wires the bridge + middle in series with each other to make a dual coil "humbucker" (not really because the Laces will not be RWRP, but bear with me), but has a roll-off knob (the Dial pot in the picture) as the second tone knob, much like a Spin-a-Split for a humbucker. Then, it uses the existing five-way switch to give you the following five positions:

1) Bridge/Mid Dual Coil
2) Bridge/Mid Dual Coil + Neck
3) Neck
4) Bridge/Mid Split + Neck
5) Bridge/Mid Split

In the split positions, the 2nd tone knob can be used to dial in just your desired amount of the middle pickup into the mix.

This is a very non-Stratty configuration, obviously, but I absolutely love it with my V Series Gold Sensors.

Thanks! It is really hard to photograph it. In natural light it is really more of a deep Royal Blue kind of color but the flash lights up all the sparkles and makes it look Turquise.

Try and use natural light. Looks nice though.

Thanks it sounds really good. The pickups are a Dimarzio FS-1 in the bridge and a Seymour Duncan SM-1 Mini Humbucker in the neck.

Here's my Westone Thunder I, I bought it when I was 16 and playing in a noise-punk band,
looks fucked up but still works well enough, full of screwdriver holes and dings, controls disappeared into the
body during misadventure, had to build that little plate to refit them,
currently with only 4 strings but good for heavy drone bullshit.

Here's my Aria Pro II Cardinal Series, that now works as my, I need a guitar with 6 5 strings guitar.
Could do with stripping the neck on this to match the Westone, which just feels better.

Here's my 90s Indian built Encore P-Bass, with a DiMarzio Split-P in it. I bought it after really fancying starting
to play bass again, Always mean't to go back and fit volume and tone knobs but haven't got round to it yet.
Pretty sad that bucklerash is taking off the dogs head. Same shit with the neck.
