  • 2 humbuckers and a standard 5-way switch?

    Is it possible to have 2 humbuckers set up on a standard strat 5-way switch so that it splits the humbuckers in the 2 & 4 positions? Basically, this setup:

    1. Bridge humbucker (series)
    2. Bridge humbucker split
    3. Bridge humbucker split + neck humbucker split
    4. Neck humbucker split
    5. Neck humbucker (series)

    If not, what can I do with a standard 5-way switch and two humbuckers?

    Something like this? http://www.guitarelectronics.com/pro...h1-Volume.html

    This is the closest I could find. I usually use this site as a reference for guitar wiring diagrams. They have a pretty good selection of options

      that's one of those super switches though. Trying to see what I can do with a regular 5-way switch.

        Take a look at this. Not exactly what you're looking for though. Which is why they make Megaswitches and Superswitches.

          I'm pretty sure that to make use of the 2 and 4 positions you need​ a super switch.
