Chaparral DiMarizo pickup wiring


AXEL276

Question

I'm in the process of restoring my old 80's Chaparral. Decades agoI had swapped the original pickups with a set of EMG's. Fortunately I saved the original DiMarizo pickups. Because my Chaparral Custom has the 3 mini toggle switches, finding a wiring diagram was a bit of a challenge. I did find the (attached) PDF from this site. It worked for the single coils but not for the humbucker. I contacted DiMarizo and they confirmed the wiring was wrong for their pickup. From what I have read over the years the Chaparral has had a couple of different pickups, Bill Lawrence, Hamer Slammers, DiMarizo and Duncans. I believe the attached PDF is for the Duncans.

Long story short, if you have a Dimarizo humbucker on your Chaparral (it will say DiMarizo on the bottom), using the attached diagram, connection 6 should be black/white and connection 5 should be green.
