Best Electric Guitars With Series Split Switch in 2024
Here are the top electric guitars with Series Split switch. Some pickups will be wired in series (the ground wire of one is connected to the hot wire of the other). This is how Humbuckers are usually connected, so you can expect a fuller sound with more output than two single-coils connected in parallel.
