BZZZZKILL FOR STRATOCASTER
Easy Test to Determine Your Stratocaster Model:
If you hear buzz in ALL positions on your 5-way pickup selector switch,
the Dual Layer BzzzzKill is right for you. This is the case for the majority of Fender Stratocasters® manufactured in recent years, which come standard with a reverse-wound middle pickup.
The Dual Layer BzzzzKill is available in Custom Series and Players Series models. See below for a comparison chart.
If positions 2 & 4 are quiet while positions 1, 3, and 5 buzz on your 5-way Pickup selector switch,
the Single Layer BzzzzKill is right for you.
The Single Layer BzzzzKill is available in Custom Series and Players Series models. See below for a comparison chart.
If you have a HSS Strat
If your Strat has the same amount of buzz in positions 3,4,5 of your selector switch you need a Single Layer BzzzzKill.
If your Strat has less buzz in position 4 than in position 3 and 5 you need a Dual Layer BzzzzKill.
Note: The BzzzzKill will not fit with a dual wafer 5 way selector switch.
