Working on a messy desktop can hurt your productivity and slow down your computer, too. Spring is on the horizon and perhaps it’s time to freshen up the old desktop. Spring cleaning isn’t just for clearing out the closets and airing out the house. Consider it a fresh start for your digital life, too. Feb 27, 2018  Important note: reverse-wound reverse-polarity middle pickup will not work with the BPSSC. Suhr's BPSSC is ideal for those Strat® purists who found the sound of Noiseless pickups too sterile and wanted to have that classic vintage Fender tone without the hum. All the BPSSC is, is a dummy coil wound into a backplate. Thats all it is, end of story.

  Congratulations on your purchase of

  Backplate Silent Single Coil (BPSSC) system

  The best way to install the BPSSC system is to use the professional service of a guitar builder or a guitar repair shop.Drilling holes, or bending of the BPSSC could badly damage the unit and cause you to lose all terms of our warranty.

  Installation instruction SSS (Three Single coil pickups) Version

  Guitar Requirements:

  1. We assume, the guitar is equipped with three single coil pickups installed on the Bridge, Middle and Neckpositions. All three pickups are with same magnetic pole orientation (i. e. North pole on the top of the pickup)and same in phase polarity of the output signal. If the guitar has RWRP Middle pickup (with the South poleon the top of the pickup) installed it needs to be replaced with a regular pickup. This BPSSC system willoperate with single coil pickups with DC resistance starting from around 6kOhms up to 8kOhms.

  2. The three pickups dont have a shielded and/or grounded pole pieces. If this is the case, and one of thepickup coil cables is used to be connected to Ground (GND) this connection needs to be split and aseparate wire, connected just to the shield and pole pieces, needs to be connected to the guitar GND.

  3. We assume, all guitar controls (pickup selector Switch, Volume, Tone controls, all pickups and the outputJack), operate normally.

  Preparing the Guitar for BPSSC System Installation:

  

  1. Pull OFF all strings from the tuners. Now you can easy access the entire pickguard assembly.2. Unscrew and remove the original plastic Back plate.3. Unscrew all mounting screws that hold the pickguard to the guitar body.4. Carefully flip the pickguard assembly around its bottom side as it is shown on FIG. 1

  Take the Adjusting PCB and make sure that you are able to fit both the Red and the Yellow cables through the holethat connects the Electronic control cavity and the Tremolo cavity. If the hole is not big enough to fit the two cablesyou need to either enlarge the original hole, or drill an additional hole parallel and next to the original one.

  BPSSC System Installation steps:A. Cut the three pickup ground wires soldered to the housing of the Volume potentiometer at from thesoldering spot.

  B. Strip one of the short ground wires on the Volume Pot (G1) and all three pickup ground wires (Bg,Mg, Ng) by 1/8 and tin them with soldering gun and fresh solder wire.

  C. Connect the Adjusting PCB cables to the guitar electronics network. Solder the cables coming out ofthe Adjusting PCB as follows: Black to G1; White wire to Ng (Neck pickup Ground); Brown wire to Mg(Middle pickup Ground); Blue wire to Bg (Bridge pickup Ground). Use tape or shrink tubing to isolatethe created soldering joints. Put the Red and Yellow wires together through the hole connecting theguitar electronics cavity with the tremolo cavity. Check on the back that around 3 of the wires areavailable in the tremolo cavity.

  D. Keeping the Adjusting PCB out of the guitar cavity, flip the pickguard assembly back to its originalposition and screw some of the top-located screws to hold it. Do not mount the bottom-located screwsso that the Adjusting PCB could be easy placed inside later.

  E. Turn the guitar with the tremolo cavity faced up. Solder the cables coming out of the Adjusting PCBwith the cables coming out from the BPSSC as follows: Yellow wire from the Adjusting PCB to Yellowwire from the BPSSC; Red wire from the Adjusting PCB to Red wire from the BPSSC. Use tape orshrink tubing to isolate the created soldering joints.

  F. Position the BPSSC with the chamfered edges outside and carefully place the Back plate mountingscrews.

  Adjusting the BPSSC for best noise cancellation:

  1. Put back on the guitar strings and tune the guitar. Turn the Volume and Tone controls to their MAX position.Use a guitar cable to connect the guitar to the guitar amplifier.

  2. Use a small Philips screwdriver to adjust the trim pots.3. Turn the two trim pots located on the Adjusting PCB to MIN (0%). In this way the guitar is at its original

  mode such that the BPSSC system hasnt been installed.4. Turn ON the guitar amplifier and set it up with a gain and loudness, so you know the level of the hum noise.

  Play a simple riff to check that all pickups operate normally at all 5 position of the pickup selector switch SW1.When the strings are muted the noise at all 5 positions will be almost the same.

  5. Hold the guitar as you would play it and get a position near the amplifier but not less than 3 feet (1 meter).Best noise canceling result will be achieved with the amplifier located behind your back and the guitarapproximately parallel to the amplifier face.

  6. Put the pickup selector switch at position 1 Only Bridge pickup. Turn up VR1 trim pot to reduce the noiselevel. If the noise increases instead of decreasing, unplug the guitar from the amplifier, unscrew the BPSSC(go to step F of the installation instructions) and swap the wires connection: Yellow wire from the AdjustingPCB to the Red wire from the BPSSC; and Red wire from the Adjusting PCB to the Yellow wire from theBPSSC. Screw back the BPSSC and turn up VR1 trim pot until you get optimum noise cancellation at position1.

  7. Put the pickup selector switch at position 4 Middle and Neck pickups in parallel. Turn up slowly the VR2trim pot to reduce the noise until you get optimum noise cancellation at position 4.

  8. You can now go back and fort through all 5 positions of the SW1 and adjust the locations of the VR1 and VR2until you get optimum noise cancellation. After you are satisfied wrap the Adjusting PCB with a small plasticbag or piece of foam with a pocked cut, to avoid shorting of the Adjusting PCB with the guitar parts and theground shield inside. Lightly pull the bottom edge of the pickguard plastic and insert the wrapped AdjustingPCB into the guitar electronics cavity.

  9. Screw in the rest of the pickguard mounting screws and check for normal operation of the guitar.10. The BPSSC system installation is done.

Parents of the December 16 gangrape victim today welcomed the passage of the long-pending Juvenile Justice Bill saying that it will deter juveniles from committing such crime against women even though they rued that their daughter has been denied justice.

“Although we are satisfied that the amendments have been passed as these will help victims of heinous crime get justice, there is grief that our daughter Jyoti was denied justice. The juvenile convict who was the most brutal was set free despite our repeated pleas and demands,” said the mother Asha Devi outside Parliament.

“This was a good thing that happened. Our efforts, at least, produced some results. By releasing the juvenile convict in this case, authorities had given out a wrong message but the new law will deter juveniles from committing heinous crimes against women,” said the father, Badri Singh Pandey.

The parents watched the proceedings from the visitor’s gallery in Rajya Sabha throughout the day as lawmakers debated the bill.

They had met Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi and Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi in the morning seeking their support to ensure that the bill gets passed.

The parents along with hundreds of youths and activists have been protesting at Jantar Mantar and India Gate for the last three days demanding passage of the bill and death penalty for the rest of four convicts in the gangrape case. They were also detained by police for holding demonstrations.

Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) Chairperson Swati Maliwal tweeted, “India failed to give justice to Nirbhaya. But once again her sacrifice led to reform for others. JJ amendments finally passed in Parliament.”

Earlier, during the day, she had appealed to BJP President Amit Shah and Congress President Sonia Gandhi to get the bill passed in the current session of Parliament.

Nobel Peace Laureate and child rights’ activist Kailash Satyarthi hailed it as a major legislative reform measure towards holistic child protection and development.

“Whether it’s a crime by a child or on a child, the focus has to be on reform and restitution and not just deterrence. Care and protection must be provided to all children up to the age of 18,” he said, adding that the protection framework provided under this law is extremely robust.

Yesterday, the Supreme Court had dismissed Maliwal’s plea against the release of the juvenile offender, saying “there has to be a clear legislative sanction” in this regard.
