SGS Fender Telecaster Electronics Upgrade- 4 Way Switch-LEFT HANDED
This gives you the usual Tele sounds in the first three positions. But in position 4, you get both pickups in series like a humbucker. It’s a big boost in output and a big, fat tone!
You need to make one important adjustment: The neck pickup’s cover has to be grounded with a separate wire. That means you have to flip the pickup over and cut the little un-insulated jumper wire that connects to the cover. That leaves a 1/4-inch nub of wire connected to the cover. Attach a new wire to that, and connect it to ground.
This wiring works great with any vintage-output Tele pickups.
This set is available with either solid shaft or split shaft pots. Most Telecasters use solid shaft. Contact us if you have any questions!

2) CTS 250K Left Handed Taper Vintage Style Audio Pots, split shaft, with Nut, Lock and Dress Washer.

Note: Most guitars manufactured overseas in South Korea, Japan, China, Indonesia and Mexico use 6mm metric pots and have metric sized holes drilled. You will need to enlarge the pot holes to 3/8" to fit these CTS pots properly.
