but the signal from the pickups (via the selector switch) has to get to the tone/volume controls or the jack, from the diagram it looks like the signal just goes to the piezo or does that dark green lead from the piezo go to the controls and jack? oh hang on, is that right then? is it meant to be like a preamp aswell... sorry if i just answered my own question

back to the killswitch, how would you build a simple killswitch like the one that bloke from radiohead has. Is it just a SPDT switch with the first connection away from the pickups, the second one coming from the pickups and the last connection to ground. I magine this crude diagram below as the underside of a SPDT switch. | o-|------<pickups | o-|------>tone pot or selector switch | o-|-------- ground

I probably missed something but on the diagram, you go from the switch to the chip, then how does it get to the output jack? thanks for your help
