I wired a Strat with the G&L passive treble and bass system to give a master volume, master treble roll off and master bass roll off. Very cool way of getting tons of new useable tones and I added a treble bleed too.
The chap I did it for is really pleased but asked if it’s possible to incorporate the 7 way Gilmour mod switching. I can’t figure it out. Any ideas please?

All the Gilmour mod does is add an extra switch (SPST) that connects the neck pickup to the "out" of the selector switch. In your diagram, run a wire from the selector switch neck terminal to one side of the new switch, then run another wire from the other side of the new switch to the "out" of the selector switch (the grey wire on the diagram).

Thanks Tony! This worked perfectly. It’s now an extremely versatile Strat.
