Hello all,
I’m wondering if anyone could help me with an idea I’ve been thinking about lately. I’d like to know how to go about wiring a HSH (SD ‘59 - Lollar special S - SD ‘59) configuration with a standard three way switch, 1 volume, 1 tone, and two mini toggles.
The idea for one mini toggle would be a coil split for the 4 conductor humbuckers. The other mini toggle would be either a two way that selects between humbuckers (meaning the the use of the standard three way already mentioned) and the middle single coil. Or a three way that selects between humbuckers-all three at once-middle single coil.
Is this possible? I think Trey Anastasio of Phish seems to have had a similar setup in recent years when using a HSH. Could you control the volume of the single coil with the one normal volume pot? What type of switches would you need?
I’m know these tonal options would be more easily attained with a five way blade, but as an aesthetic matter, I’d much prefer the standard three way and the mini toggles. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks!
