Fender Telecaster pre-wired control harness with 4-way switch mod.

Position 2 of the 3-way Telecaster selector switch gives you both pickups wired in parallel; this is a standard wiring, and one of the classic Telecaster tones. But what if you need a fatter sound out of your Tele? The two outside switch positions on the Tele - which select the bridge or neck pickup individually - stay basically the same. But the middle position (both pickups together) wires the pickups in series rather than parallel. This produces a thicker, meatier sound, while still retaining the recognizable characteristics of a Tele. This is not a hum-cancelling combination, but it gives the increased power of a series link.

The 4-way Tele switch will give you both sounds when you dial in the two pickups together - wired in parallel (standard wiring) and wired in series for a beefier fuller sound.

**Can be supplied with crimp connectors for solderless hook up if required**
Be aware though that the metal cover on the neck pickup needs to be grounded separately for the series option to work, which will require disconnecting the jumper wire and soldering a cable to it.
