I use the bridge in conjunction with my middle pickup most of the time. In a rare case I will pull out the volume pot and get the bridge pickups by itself. But normally I play with either the bridge pickup and middle activated for my leads. It gets a nice humbucker sound sounds sweet with some overdrive... or the neck and middle for my rythms. Gives incredible warmth and also sounds neat with overdrive... I can get some neat tones with the other selections though. I like switching from the B/M/N position to the B/N position to kind of drop the middle out. It gives a nice effect. The B/M/N covers a great tonal range and if it's overdriven it will fill the rythm section of a song with tone. Like I said the B/M and M/N are my two most common postions. I did all the wiring a while back... and I would have to dig up the schematics for it. I can try to draw it out from memory but I'm almost certain I wouldn't get it 100% right. I forgot to mention that I also re-wired the tone knobs. Instead of the tone knobs controlling the bridge and middle pickups independently... they now control the bridge and neck pickups independently. I play with the neck tone knob at 1 and the bridge tone knob at 10. If I kick in some chorus with the B/M/N switching it sounds pretty cool... almost like they're are three guitars playing. It took some time to hammer out... but I designed to work well with my specific style of playing.

I can understand the time issue! haha.
