Artec Pickups

[.bong.]

^Artec rails po Sir...

Ah ganun ba. Meron din ako Artec Rails (for Tele) pero hindi naman mahina ang output.

[colorless krayola]

^ba't kaya ganun yun sakin..? sa neck ko sya ginamit eh... I followed the wiring diagram as instructed by Sir Daks...
malayo talaga yun pagkakaiba nila sa stock pick ups ko in terms of volume...

Baka may mali lang sa wiring?  Pa check mo kaya sa marunong sa electronics.

is it the in between position?

is it the in between position?

Hintay tayo ng reply ni colorless krayola  Baka nga sa in-between position sya may prob

my question:

what are the potentiometer values?

my suggestion:

-exchange the position of the green and black wires

ryan aka kune_km has a similar setup, we didn't have a problem with that

graduate na po ako sa electronics Sir Bong... hehehe
alam ko po tama yun wiring based on the sketch na binigay ni Sir Dax...

is it the in between position?

alin po dun mga Sir..?

250k stock potentiometer... ( i think 'to yun problema... kaya naghahanap ako sketch paano makapunta ng LAZER... hehe)
*so gagawin ko signal(+) yun black, at yun green magiging ground (-)... subukan ko muna 'to Sir Dax before I change my potentiometers...


(has anyone tried using the double rails on middle position..?)

[bryanarzaga]

alin po dun mga Sir..?

im assuming the 2nd position of your pickup switch

[colorless krayola]

Isa pa pala mga Sir...
pag-ginamit ko both neck (artec rails) and middle (stock) pick up, halos wala ka marining mula sa neck (artec rails)...parang yun middle (stock) lang ang gumagana pero may konti din yun neck (artec) which is not the case when I'm still using the stock pick ups for both neck and middle positions...
(considering I raised already the height of the neck (artec) to get closer to the strings to catch up on the volumes of the stock pick ups...)
kasi pagnaka-level talaga sya tulad ng nasa middle (stock) pick up ko,mahina talaga yun output nya (artec)...
I'm thinking also it might be the wrong polarity of the magnets...If this case is possible in Artec Doulble Rails pick ups...

[colorless krayola]

meaning po Sir Bry..?
sira yun connections on the 2nd position of the 5-way switch..?

[bryanarzaga]

just change the wiring of the stock, put the current ground wire as the hot wire and the hot wire to ground..single coils right?

[colorless krayola]

^ Okay Sir... I'll try to switch the polarity of the wires later when I get to my room...

Sabi mo kasi sa kin gagawin mong HSS setup, kala ko SSS yung stock mo  Kung sa neck nakalagay yung Artec Dual Rail, dapat talaga 500k volume and tone pots. 

try to switch the positions of the green and black wires, or exchange the position of the ground and hot wires of the middle single coil. Just a little patience, brother

sir anu po tawag dun sa switch nyo po parang kakaiba po eh

[dakuykoy]

sir anu po tawag dun sa switch nyo po parang kakaiba po eh

5-way lang din yan, iba lang itsura.  nagulat lang din ako nung binuksan ko yan 

[arkeetar]

sir anu po tawag dun sa switch nyo po parang kakaiba po eh

kakaiba s'ya kasi ang tawag sa kanya ay "superswitch" hehehe 

[renz13]

ahh....yan po ba yung nakaka gawa ng custom switching?

[arkeetar]

ahh....yan po ba yung nakaka gawa ng custom switching?

yup hehe, kelan ko lang din nalaman 'to kaya maraming ngipin mukha nga daw ferris wheel 

[renz13]

ahh....nag research po ako ng onti dyan medyo may kamahalan po pala .....

[arkeetar]

ahh....nag research po ako ng onti dyan medyo may kamahalan po pala .....

hehe medyo bro, pero si jim nag suggest s'kin kaya kumuha na rin ako, mas mura pa rin compare
sa bumili ng bagong guitar na hindi ko basta kayang gawin hehe 

saka para magamit ko mabuti yung artec dual rails hehe

Oopss, sorry  Sana maayos nyo yan,sir. Goodluck

I installed one in Chupao's Ibby, in the middle position  sounds good

HSS po yun stock ko... hehe
that time gagawin ko sana HSH...
kanina sinubukan ko gamitin sa middle yun Artec Double Rails, mas nagandahan ako sa tunog  compared nun nandun sya sa Neck position...
Mangyayari ngayon magiging HHS na yun pick up configuration ko... hahaha
pero ganun pa din, mahina pa din output ng Artec, sinubukan ko na ipalit yun black and green wires...

I noticed also the Artec pick up has a lesser magnetic force compared to the stock pick ups...
Ndi kaya malakas lang talaga yun output ng stock pick ups compared sa normal pick ups kaya parang naging mahina yun Artec..?

Mamaya subukan ko i-parallel yun wiring ng Artec... I was thinking it was in series connection kasi yun white and red wires were soldered together...
Ano po kaya configuration ng 4 wires na yun Sir Dax..?
