Hi, this is Amazing! Thanks for sharing. I got the same guitar about a month ago and can't wait to modify mine as well. I read that many standard pick guards do not fit HB Strat body and the only one they have in Thomann is either HSS or SSS. Can you provide more details/source of where you got the actual pick guard? Thank you so much! Awesome Job!

So, I wired exactly how you have it however my pickups (I’ve tried multiple) have no gain or distortion 😂 I’ve plugged it into two separate amps (dirty channels), the signal coming out is clean. It’s so weird! Anyone have problems like this? I even swapped out the pot. Used a different 9v, I’ve tried EMG’s, fishmans, etc. all the same results.

I know this is old and no one will probably reply but i got the same configuration 1 pickup 1 volume but all i get is extreme buzz, yeah sound comes out like it should but it also gives off terrible buzz, which overpowers the sound, i put copper tape shielding down to see of that helped but nothing..and apparently the pick up is fine according to the my local guitar store..

Nice tutorial. How are you going to manage the 9V battery storage and access panel?
