Re: Ric-o-Sound Problem

There is, of course, the inevitable fact that when you common up the outputs of two pickups (or two blocks of pups) in parallel to get a mono output, the effective impedance of the combined pups is halved, but that would still happen if you had the guitar wired as per method 2. This makes me think ...

For versitile pickup combinations each pickup halve has its own switch.. could this be a problem? Grasping at straws now :lol:

Re: Ric-o-Sound Problem

But yes, comb filtering is a strong possibility. Its character is heavily dependent on the distance between the two pups. [/quote] This is very interesting "giving me hope" Ive got the circuits running bass halve and treble halve of split pickups on separate circuits "top diagram"...

Just two SS circuits
What's a SS circuit?
SS = two Single coils As opposed to say.. HS = humbucker + Single coil, HH = Two Humbuckers

Re: Ric-o-Sound Problem

What's a SS circuit? Good question. That phrase has me foxed too. To address the OP's problem: if you're getting a volume drop when the outputs of the two pickups are combined into mono, it could be 1. Comb filtering (a sum-and-difference effect that happens whenever you combine the outputs of two ...

Re: Ric-o-Sound Problem

Didnt have a schematic..
Just two SS circuits, tone + vol for each.."done this bit many times" hitting the ric-o-jack system. Wondering if ive tried to do something that is impossible?

Could it be that two separate circuits converging on one mono jack will cancel out some frequency?
