I just built my version of the Fender Strat Plus Deluxe, complete with Red, White, and Blue Lace Sensor pickups, LSR roller nut, and locking tuners. It rocks! However, something is missing. It has the guts, but not the oomph from those mid-90s Plus Deluxe models. I used 250K pots but did not install the split-shaft volume control or the TBX tone control. Is that cause of the limpness in output?

Welcome.

Actually, the split-shaft volume control nor the TBX tone control would have nothing to do with your complaint. If you are positive you wired everything correctly and everything including the pickups are working correctly, well, what you hear is what you get.

Thanks. I figured out the problem-a single capacitor. The guitar sounds great and as I play it more, it's less an issue. Lots of tone b/w those different Lace Sensors.

Mr. 72 kind sir,

Sounds like the issue is resolved, but here is something for your reference should you need to refer to it. Remember, Plus Deluxes only had different pickups from this diagram:

Holy moley, that's exactly what I was looking for on the Fender webpage! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I knew I was missing something, a capacitor or a resistor, but there was nothing on the web. Seriously, thank you, sir!! You saved my franky!
