hmm, thanks it is a VERY complicated design, but i know ill be happy with that exact setup :) one thing though, if im wiring it to 5 different positions, does that mean i just need to split each of the 8 wires on the MB so that i can connect it right? would i get a junctionbox? or could you just take asnother wire off a solder point of the previous one? for example, solder the first position on (front rail, out of phase) and then take the wires from thoses lugs, to the next position along with the ones from the other rail?

oh also, the 4 wires in a MB, except the grouding, are these hot and earth for each rail? if so, which ones which?

i think i can wire alot of that pretty well, the only couple of things that are niggling though, are, how do i connect it to a dpdt on/off/on mini switch for seriel/parellel? im not actually sure how the lugs are arranged on one either? so the 1st question is how do you wire a standerd HB in parellel/seriel to a switch?

and secondly, the phasing confuses me :( i dunno if the guy made a mistake (hes german, writing in english) but i wouldnt know how to make the front 2 rails out of phase with each toher using just 4 wires :confused: the one rail alone will be easy...i take it all KA pickups will be wound the same way in order to make them automatically in phase with each other, so i just do the reverse phase wiring in the instructions to make the front reversed phase for when i use the P90
