Squier Cyclone Plus

I just got my new pickup today !

Made a crappy pickguard to put it on my "Cyclone".

My link

Pickups are :

Blue Sensor in neck

Silver/Red in bridge

2 3-way toggle switch

one for : Neck(not working ☹ same as N+B )/Neck+Bridge/Bridge

one for bridge pickup : Silver/Both/Red

So I can't have the neck pickup alone.

And the volume pot is weird, it's either off or at full level...

hey maya! glad to hear you got that lace sensor dually working. i still have not gotten mine working properly. can you tell me how you got the switching to work? i've been trying to do the same (red- both- silver) but can't figure it out. thanks

I used the wiring diagram from lacemusic.

The last one on this pdf :

I was expecting some difficulties but it worked just fine.

It's a very cool way to wire this pickup, you can really get three different tones out of it.

Hope it will help you. 😀

There's something ironic (and kinda funny) about having 2 3-way switches yet not having an option as simple as neck pickup alone 😀

That said, the guitar looks good. I like the re-designed pickguard 😀

I took care of the 2 problems I had.

What I did was to isolate the two green wires from the dually pickup, they should not be connected to the ground.

Voila, hope this helps...

And thanks again for the kind words.

I have an old Hohner guitar with a half plastic half paper half tape pickguard. Been meaning to get one made for it for years but it just sits under my bed collecting dust.

The guitar itself is across between a jaguar and a strat. Mines just got a bridge humbucker in it and a volume knob.

One of these but in pastel green:

wow nice pickups!!!...and whoa...additional switches 😛 ...the pickguard's funny though (i hope it's not permanent)
