Stumbled onto a random post in a forum that mentioned obsidian wireless harness. Figurerd it was worth a look. Had some doubts about my ability to do this. Soldering and assembling each pot and wire would have made the job a hard pass for me. I know plenty of people do it - I simply have no desire to pay for tools and patiently learn the skill.
Probably took an hour all together as I was referencing the directions and such. Turned out that the middle single coil I had was out of phase with the neck and bridge buckers. Didn’t sound terrible to be honest but there was a volume drop in positions 2 &4. So after installing pups for the first time, I popped the guard off and extracted the middle pup. Switched the ground and hot wires. Put it back together and it sounds even better lol!
Long story short, sound is superb, and this kit simplifies the process to the extent that a total know-nothing like myself can manage to “wire” a HSH super strat . I’m still sorta shocked.
The only possible down side to this I see is the potential for getting hooked on trying new pups since it’s so easy to swap them in and out now.
