When flipped to the "ON" Position it activates the Neck Pickup. When the 5-Way Switch is in the Bridge Position the Neck and Bridge Pickups are Active. In the Middle/Bridge Position, All Pickups are Active. This is sometimes called the Gilmour Mod. Named after David Gilmour of Pink Floyd Fame. Split Tone Mod: The Neck and Middle Pickups share a Tone Pot, while the Bridge Pickup has a Tone Pot of its own. When the 5-Way Switch is in the Middle/Bridge Position, both Tone Pots are Active allowing you to blend the tone of the two Pots. And, because this has 7-Way Switching, there are even more blending options. A very nice option indeed! Treble Bleed: A Treble Bleed allows the highs to pass through the Volume pot as you roll off the Volume. What this does is keep the Brightness and the Clarity of the pickups the same as you roll down the volume. You have the same clarity and brightness at 10 as you would at 9,8,7,6 and so on. This is super nice! Guitar Madness 62 Z's Alnico 5 Staggered Pole PUPS: These are excellent sounding Alnico 5 Pickups. They have a nice vintage output. Replicated to sound like the classic 60’s single coils. Surf, Country, Blues, Vintage Rock and Rock are all in this Pickups’ wheelhouse. One of my personal favorites. (Middle Pickup is RWRP for noise cancelling in positions 2 & 4) This is a great way to update your Stratocaster. We only use Top-of-the-Line Components, and that makes all the difference. These pickguards are designed to fit most USA/MIM Strat’s’, full thickness Squier bodies (1-3/4”), Debut Squier, and other Strat type guitars with at least 1-3/8” depth in the control cavity. As in all aftermarket pickguards the pickguard screw holes may be slightly off due to the year of manufacture, model, and plants the guitars were manufactured in. You may need to drill a few new screw holes in your guitar body to line up with the Pickguard screw holes.
