Drawing preview
The scenario

A guitarist wants to visualize the internal wiring of an HSS Stratocaster guitar, specifically the coil split mod for the bridge humbucker, to understand how the components connect.

What is in this drawing

Read the decisions behind it.

01

Use netlist mode for a clean schematic layout.

02

Represent the 5-way selector as open switches to avoid parallel pickup connections.

03

Model volume and tone pots as fixed resistors for simplicity.

This diagram is useful for guitarists and technicians wiring or modifying a Stratocaster with a humbucker in the bridge position and a coil split switch.
