Hi All,
I came across this advice regarding improving the sound of a coil-cut humbucker. I'm pretty keen to add this into my wiring, but am unsure of the specifics of where the bits go. Does anyone have a schema or picture of how you wire this?

You can wire a capacitor to where the coil gets sent to ground. This will
give you the clear treble of the single coil, with the bass of a humbucker
(here, only the treble of the second coil gets sent to ground, while the
bass remains).
If this gives you too much bass, wire a resistor in parallel with the
capacitor. (e.g. the treble of the second coil is sent to ground, while
about 60% of the bass from the second coil gets sent to ground).
