EDIT: tl;dr: we got it working! apparently my neck pup is RWRP so I moved the splitting wiring to a separate on/on toggle switch and wired its output (instead of ground) to the tone dpdt which switches between grounding the series joins or sending them to the 3 way blade (in parallel to the hots coming off the pickups). This allows the switch to toggle splitting on and off, and the tone push/pull to switch said split between the inside coils and outside coils, all while still cancelling hum (in the middle position anyway).
I created a wiring diagram, and retroactively attached it to this first post for any future tone nerds.
Hey! It's been a while...
I have a PRS SE Custom 22 with the 85/15Ss. Currently it's wired with a vol, 3 way blade, and push/pull tone pot for coil split.
I just mounted a small DPDT on-on switch. It will take over the coil splitting duties of the tone pot, because it's more practical for me than pulling up the tone pot. I still want to use the tone for something though, and that's what I need help with...
I want to use the push/pull tone to alternate between the north coils and the south coils that are grounded by the coil split switch. To clarify, this would mean that the on-on switch will ground 2 coils, and when the tone pot is "down" it will be the south (inside) coils that are grounded, but when it is "up" it will be the north (outside) coils that are being grounded.
This is a little unique so I can't find a dedicated diagram for something like this, but I'm using this as a starting point obviously: Seymour Duncan 2 Hum, 1 vol, 1 on-on switch coil split, 3 way blade diagram.
How should I approach this? should I wire the tone pot as a phase switcher essentially? I think I just need a little help discerning which diagrams/concepts to piece together.
