Pos 1: Bridge+Middle (switch in down position)
Pos 2: Bridge+Neck
Pos 3: Bridge+Middle+Neck
Pos 4: Middle+Neck
Pos 5: Neck

I have hum cancelling in 4 positions and I also have a push/pull pot to activate/deactivate the middle pickup so I can go in and out of phase in positions 1 and 4. Essentially gives me 7 tones instead of 5...


my mod already take too much time. so i wanna set things and finish as soon as possible. i have no any hum even the stock coil wiring, because of the shielded pickup cavities. i have an extra "humbucker series/split" switch for strat quack. what about your combination's tone caharacteristics? there's lotta "bridge + smthin" option. looks like generally cool "teleish" tones... :)

so can u gimme it's scheme with same style switch?
