guitar wiring harness mini-terminal splice blocks
« on: August 25, 2021, 02:50:36 pm »
i'm looking for some mini terminal blocks to act as splicers so i can minimize soldering when changing pickups. i have quite a few pickups accumluated over the years i want to start experimenting with and not interested in soldering with each swap.

you see the pre-wired kits, like mojotone and artys-custom-guitars, etc., that have the mini terminal blocks but they usually have some sort of circuit board attached with their designs.

i'ld like similar mini terminal blocks as splicers without circuit board that i could adhere to the control plate. whether screw in or clamp in would be ok.

i've done a lot of searches but they are either for mini pcb board, too large, etc. i have a SD liberator but it's a bit bulky for me.

anyone know of such a product(s)?

Look in the electric section in a big box store, Home Depote, Lows, etc. They sell reusable little clamp type splice gizzmos.

Seymour Duncan "Liberators" pots may work for you.   I've used them in the past.   To tell the truth, once I get a setup I like on a guitar, I usually leave it alone nowadays.

For good job AND for a long time ; solder, solder and solder

What I use in many electronics projects ; easy to cut in piece and well insulated
