Hi Guys

I was wondering why fender only uses the "Delta Tone" on the middle and bridge pickup? I like what it does, but why not on the neck pickup? I was thinking this may be a really easy mod, either wire the neck pickup to the "Delta Tone" pot or replace the neck tone control with a delta tone control.

Has any tried this or have any input on it?

you could wire the delta tone as a master tone and have your remaining pot as a volume/blend/on-off control for the neck or bridge pickup.

Sync, It should be mandatory on strats. It gives far more tonal possibilities than having 2 tone pots. The Delta tone is a natural conclusion to that setup, setting it on 10 is like having no tone pot, so your not losing the standard bridge pickup setting and you have the flat out setting for the other 2 pickups too.
