The heart of this drop-in prewired Strat® harness is our custom designed 500K pot. First built over 45 years ago, we wanted the smooth feel and graduated taper found on some vintage 50s guitars. Using a 10-step rotary switch, we created a taper that works with DiMarzio pickups. It’s neither a linear nor audio taper pot -- it's DiMarzio's custom taper. To further increase reliability, we make the center shaft and threaded parts from solid machined brass instead of cheap castings.
This kit also features a premium DiMarzio 3-way Tele®-style switch, a Switchcraft output jack, and both black and white switch tips.
DiMarzio wiring harnesses are all hand assembled and tested in the USA. We use the best sound-tested parts available from Switchcraft®, Sprague®, and CTS®, and we include vintage-style cloth wire.
