Dedicated Lefty Tele Wiring!

This harness has been deigned and produced with specially crafted left hand potentiometers for a smoother volume and tone control taper, and the correct reverse turn, for Lefty players.

TELECTASTER® ELECTRONICS FOR HUMBUCKER LOADED TELES®

We have created this harness especially for humbucker or P90 loaded Telecasters, and made it compatible with single coils, or single coil sized humbuckers as well. We incorporate INTELLIGENT SWITCHING which allows you to get the absolute most out of both pickups, no matter the configuration

INTELLIGENT SWITCHING

Optimized for humbuckers & single-coils When building a Telecaster with a mix of humbuckers and single coils, there is a toss-up between choosing 500k controls, to retain the life of a humbucker, or 250k controls, to balance brighter single coils.

We say 'why choose? '. So we build in Obsidian® Intelligent Switching to give you the absolute best of both your humbuckers and single coils with a wiring harness that will automatically switch between the two.

THE MODES

  • HH Tele® (Humbucker + Humbucker)
  • HS Telecaster (Humbucker Neck + Single Coil Bridge)
  • SH Telecaster (Humbucker Bridge + Single Coil Neck)
  • SS Tele® (Two Single coils / traditional Tele® mode)

CRYSTAL CLEAR TONE (Treble Bleed)

Retain clarity at lower volumes. To make your tone crystal clear at lower volumes we include an Obsidian® Custom spec treble bleed mod. This prevents tone 'muddiness' at low volumes by allowing high frequencies to pass along a separate path to your amp, rather than being stopped short by the increasing resistance at the volume control.

SMOOTH CONTROL

Even tone and volume control all the way from zero to ten. Obsidian® tone and volume controls incorporate carefully selected and custom-built components, as well as our own clever mods to smooth out the taper of your tone and volume controls, so you get a more even roll off all the way from zero to 10.
