What if I wanted to use all 3 strat pickups at once?

What would I have to do?

The easiest thing to do is to put in a small on/off switch for the bridge pickup.

I had this mod on one of my previous strats and it worked well.

There are a several ways, here's some of the more popular:

- Mini-switch;
- Push/pull pot;
- Changing one tone pot to a master while changing the leftover tone pot to a 1 Meg pot, using it to dial in a pickup into the circuit while overriding the toggle;

- Rewire the toggle switch.

You could also put in an "E Megaswitch" and wire it up in a variety of ways.
