Jaguar Stratocaster tuned in fourth EADGCF

I made this strat long ago using a body from a German seller and a neck from Aliexpress. Pickups are coming from eyguitarmusic.com and also from Guitar Fetish website.

Electronic goes as follows.
HSH. The two humbuckers come from eyguitarmusic and the middle pickup, a telecaster neck pup, from the Guitar Fetish website.

The humbuckers are Eric Custom Alnico 5 Rod Pickup for Fender American Professional Telecaster Deluxe Shawbucker, and the single coil is a telecaster neck pickup from Guitar Fetish.

Nashville wiring

The Nashville wiring is the name of the wiring I did on this guitar. Despite having three pickups, the selector has only three positions. Only the humbuckers pass through the selector. The only way to dial in the middle pickup is to use the concentric double-volume potentiometer. The top volume is the telecaster single-coil, and the bottom is the two humbuckers.
Other than that, I have a tone pot and a BCU Artec onboard booster.

Both humbuckers can be in series, parallel, or split independently using two switches.

Hardware

I installed a GFS sustain block and used only two springs. A Fender LSR roller nut and tuners from China.

Watch the slideshow

The body has been burned, which is why it looks like a leopard. The original guitar was orange.

Fourth tuning: EADGCF

I work on many different tunings because I play each one differently. The fourth tuning will replace the normal tuning in my guitar arsenal. Now that I’m used to it, I find the normal tuning weak.

I use a set of 09/042 strings. It is lighter on the two highest strings, compensating for the semi-tone.

You can hear this guitar in my latest video:
