Wow this is awesome! I appreciate you going through all this trouble!

How would I make it work if I was to go with the 3 pin rocker switch I posted up above?

It works fine without the LED, and I did suggest a three pin rocker switch with a small red LED in it in the reply I sent to Curtisa up there. I'll be switching to the rocker switch regardless and forego the light. It will be easier to tell if the rocker switch is on than the pushing switch by far

Understood. Thanks for your help!

I did buy another type of switch, but would this work with the battery negative on one, the bridge wire and battery positive on the middle and a wire to the volume pot lug?

I wouldn't have half a clue how to do that lol

Well that's too bad Thanks for all the help!

Ok I took the guitar apart and here's what the wiring looks like. The black wire joins LED negative, "Lug 3" and the battery's negative side. Red wires joins LED positive, "Lug 1", Lug 1 on the volume pot, and the positive side of the battery. "Lug 2" is attached to the bridge pickup. I tried lots of different combinations but this was the only way I came across that did what I wanted it to. Other ways either kept the LED dim when it was off and bright when on, or the LED wouldn't work at all. If you guys can see how to do it properly I'd love some help.

Ok I'll take it apart tomorrow and take some pics. I was running into an issue where the light would come on when the switch was turned on, but when the switch was off the light would just go dim and not off. In the end I did hook up the "spare" lug and that worked. I'll retrace the wiring tomorrow

Hello everyone. Was hoping I could get a bit of guidance for a mod I did on my PRS Mira. It was originally a two humbucker guitar but I put in a p90 in the middle position and changed the 3 way blade switch for a 5 way. I did a mod on my PRS Swamp Ash Special that uses an additional push pull pot on the volume (the tone is for coil splitting) to turn the bridge pickup on so I can have the neck and bridge together in position 1 (and all three pickups in position 2). For the Mira, I decided to put in a latching push button to do the same thing that also has an LED ring that lights up when the button is pushed in. Here's the link to the one I installed from Amazon: Latching Push Button Switch, 16mm 12V Momentary Push Button LED Latching ON/Off Power Push Button Switch, 1 Pack Power Symbol+Ring LED Stainless Steel Waterproof (White) https://a.co/d/bBA5zVD The issue I now have is that to power the LED I can use batteries, but the LED seems to constantly draw power from the button batteries I was using (2 × 2032s stacked in black electrical tape bundle with the positive and negative wires) so that even if I didn't have the LED on, the batteries go dead. I switched the button batteries for a square 9-volt (attached a 9-volt end onto the positive and negative wires) which worked fine but the battery got really hot. Then I tried two AAs with a battery box wired up and they got hot as well. So I'm not sure what to do about the LED light. It works well without it, but if I can't run it off of batteries then I should just go with a dpdt or something. Does anyone know if there are switches made for guitars that would run off of batteries that would do the job? I know I could certainly use a plain switch and hook up an LED wired to button batteries that I could make a hole in the pickguard for to show it's on, but if anyone knew of a switch designed for this that I could buy online then I would go with that. Thanks for reading. And thanks in advance for any help
