gimo8978 Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 I'm currently building a strat style guitar and wanted to use a three way switch that actived the pickups in this order-neck&middle,all on,middle&bridge.Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Acousticraft Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 That is a strange combination of pickups. You really need a neck only and a bridge only in my book. Why not just use a 5 way switch as that gives plenty of combinations and wiring schematics are easy to find. Fender.com go to resources and wiring and switching diagrams has all the info needed.

Samba Pa Ti Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 you can do it with DPDT switches (3 of them) and then you can easily get those combinations (its series wiring though), have a look at the brian may wiring if you want to try that (i dont like using 3/5way switches so i dont know much about them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
