"Technique" makes it sound a lot more complicated than it is :) It's literally soldering the hot wire of one pickup to the ground wire of another, then soldering the hot wire of that second pickup to the pickup selector switch. I'd say it should take 10 minutes and most of that is just unscrewing the pickguard and screwing it back on. Anyway, I just figured I'd mention the option.
Yeah, I hear you, but to be honest if I was going to even put in new pickups I would leave my soldering gun cold in the closet and just pay someone to do it. For one, I don't have any time that is not spoken for, secondly, I have a three year old and a five year old getting into everything while I work at it. I don't have anywhere else to work other than the dining table and experience is teaching me to just have someone else deal with this stuff for now.
