Big ups for this. It does look simple but I haven't seen the like on the net and it may help (we'll see). Not rocket science but had been beyond me to get this sorted so far.

When you're doing a wiring project involving these old chrome-capped pickups, I most heartily recommend wax potting the things. It's simply a massive change in playability at mid to high volume levels. It cuts the squeal almost completely, even with a compressor or gain pedal. I have one potted and one stock tulip; you have to be in constant control of the non-potted guitar, just a nightmarish amount of string muting and volume-rolling.

My potted guitar has a bit less output, but the non-potted one is ridiculously hot so I see the wax as a plus there as well - though that could just be inherent differences in the pickups themselves (though they appear exactly the same build-wise).

My overall take on the pickups though (heresy, I know) is replace them with P90's - you get everything cool about the teisco - the funky style and that sort of woody-yet-gritty sound - but it's like taking a blanket off your speakers - there's a wonderful articulation of the notes with a really unique tone curve (from the 40 year old plywood maybe?) which takes the Tulip from an oddity with a one-trick-pony tone to a really useful and unique instrument you'll reach for often.

Check out the guitar solo tones in this video - there's nothing from Gibson or Fender that sounds quite like this to me. (I used surface mount P90's on this guitar and shimmed the neck a solid 1/4" making it nearly unplayable, so the rhythm/chords lack some sustain - I'm going to route this guitar for HB mount P's and make it a little monster).

That is a very interesting diagram but it seems if they gave it a little more thought it could have had a fourth wiring option: both pickups in parallel.

Yes, you lose the option to switch the guitar "off", but it seems to me that the parallel tone is a much better tone than "off". :)

For discussion, I'll refer to "Neck switch" as "NS". "Bridge switch" as "BS", Right ("R") and Left ("L") with reference to the diagram (and not to the switch lever on top of the guitar)

NSR, BSL = Bridge pickup only, neck pickup shorted
NSL, BSR = Neck pickup only, bridge pickup shorted
NSR, BSR = Both pickups shorted (no output)
NSL, BSL = Both pickups in series

While series wiring is fairly common nowadays (made famous by Brian May), I wasn't aware of factory series wiring back in the 1960's.
