I havent tried it, £200 for a dummy coil is a bit too expensive for my budget. Thats basicaly all it is, a pickups coil with the magnet removed from the center. It is reverse wound to your pickups and brings them to humbucker status. As you say without affecting tone. Its easier to acheive with a lot less cost. Simply take a old pickup, pop the magnet(s) off it and wire it into your guitars control cavity.

Activation Keys S there. Both a waste of time in my opinion, I'd rather have the hum. Heres a schematic on how to wire the dummycoil into the circuit.

Ignore the midboost and altered tone/mid pot configuration. Just concentrate on how the pickup shaped thing in the control cavity is applied to the circuit. Ignore the wire colours, its far more important to wire the coil so its windings are reversed to your pickups windings. Where this diagram shows a white wire connecting to the tone pot, connect that wire to where the hotwire from the switch traditionaly connects to the volume pot. You will likely have to muck about revesing the wiring of your center pickup as a dummycoil will not work with a RWRP middle pickup. Hence Suhr not fitting them to their dummycoil equipped guitars. If your middle pickup is stock polarity, a dummycoil will eliminate noise in all positions.

Stock polarity middle pickups sound far better than humbucking rwrp middle pickups in my opinion. It's something that is slowly becoming lost in the mists of time.

All noise cancelling modifications alter the sound of your guitar. Whether its just shielding or adding a constant dummy coil. It's highly unlikely that any hum your experiencing from your rig. To the point of being unable to perform or record with it, likely isnt coming from your guitar. You may be better served looking at your amp, pedals and leads. I've just installed a stock polarity set of singles in a strat a couple of weeks back.

No shielding, no rwrp, next to no noise. Certainly not enough to negate using the guitar in any situation. People have recorded stock strats for 56 years now, without need for dummycoils or shielding. Look at current singlecoil sized humbucker pickup marketing and ask yourself why 60hz hum is such a problem this last ten or so years.

I really like the stock pups on my 62 AVRI but hated the hum. Was looking into installing a Suhr Backplate but then started tinkering and came up with this mod. Using stock 250k Pots. Dummy coil is a Old Plastic Bobbin Fender Japan pup with magnets removed.

Bottom Tone Pot is wired to Roll off Treble on just the Bridge Pup, personel preference. I Could have wired it as a Master Tone for all pups but I often ride on the Bridge pup at a gig with the Tone on 8. I never need to roll off tone on the Neck and Middle pup so. Stock pups are about 6k and the Dummy Coil is about 6k. If you measure at the output jack you'll measure 6k. Roll back the Middle pot and the resistance will increase up to 12k and the Hum just goes away, AWESOME! I must note with this setup I noticed there was a considerable amount of hum still until I flipped the dummy coil.

I imagine that I could have just flipped the Dummy coil wires on the Middle pot to achieve the same result. Ssc Service Utility 4.20. Such a useful MOD especially for guys that love there stock vintage Pups but need to take away the Hum when needed. Everyone loves the sound of the pure single-coil pickup, but the 60-cycle hum that it generates has been an annoyance that musicians have had to deal with for over 50 years or not deal with at all and use humbucker pickups or settle for tonal compromises like stacked single-coils, dummy coils, and active electronics. Those days are now over with the Suhr/Ilitch Electronics SSC System. Originally only available as a built-in system on Suhr Classic guitars, the SSC is now available in a backplate that covers the tremolo spring cavity and that means you can now enjoy the benefits of this breakthrough technology on non-Suhr guitars with 'pure' single-coil pickups.
