OK Maybe I have been making things hard for myself.
I'm thinking now I'l try a simple rotary switch. I figure if I use a 2pole, 6 position switch I can get this:
1. stock
2. bridge always on
3. bridge in series with middle
4. bridge always on & in series with middle
5. bridge in series with neck
6. bridge always on & in series with neck
by wiring it up as such
pole A being the bridge cold wire, pole B being the bridge hot
1. A->ground, B->bridge lug on selector
2. A->ground, B->output of selector
3. A->middle lug on selector, B->bridge lug on selector
4. A->middle lug on selector, B->output of selctor
5. A->neck lug on selector, B->bridge lug on selector
6. A->neck lug on selector, B->output of selctor
Will this do the trick? I think it will but am unsure about what happens what, say, the middle pickup is selected while the cold of the bridge is routed to it. WHat do I get? just the middle? middle & bridge in series? hum?
Here's another lame diagram!!!:
