Can someone explain to me how the Delta Tone works? I just bought a 08 American Strat with the Delta tone and it sounds great. I read the short bit on the specs, but I am not sure I understand the workings

Simply stated:

The neck pickup is wired to tone pot #1. The middle and bridge pickups are wired to tone pot #2. (Delta-tone)

When the second tone pot clicks on '10' it is now out of the circuit, (no-load) and unmodified pickup signal flows to the output jack.

Enjoy. It's not a new development for Fender. I had that in a '97 American Standard. It's a great concept if one desires pure signal from the pickup.
In fact,in the JV Artist guitar the middle pickup bypasses any tone circuit directly.
