two in one discussion

I have a tin box i would like to 3 string up. Is there anything i would need to know or ideas on stabilizing the inside? 2nd i recently got 2 dual gibson humbucker pickups they only have one braided chord coming out of the body. Is this normal? How does the hookup work.

    Hi,
    I have never used a tin so I cannot answer the first question. The answer to the humbuckers was discussed previously and if you check out "help with humbucker wiring" from a day or so ago you should find the answer you want - the only thing i would add is that for a wiring diagram check out the seymour Duncan website http://www.seymourduncan.com/support/wiring-diagrams/ this gives multiple pickup wiring options.Good luck - I'll look forward to seeing pictures of the finished guitar.

  • If you build a thru neck you will maybe find that the stability of the box is not quite as important as when you attatch the strings to the tin....
