  • [wiring diagram] 2 triple shot and a 4 ways switch

    Hi.


    I need your help to wiring my guitar with :


    2 p-rail & 2 triple shots
    1 volume (no push pull)
    1 tone (no push pull)
    4 way toggle (neck, series, parallel, bridge)




    I don't know if it is possible...

    Best regards.

    Just combine the Tele 4-way blade drawing with the drawing for Triple Shots.

      right. wire up the triple shots as normal, then use the two wires coming off each of them to wire the 4 way

        What will happen when the two pickups in series are then put in series? Is it like an onboard Muff?

                In your original post you specified the order of switch positions to be...neck, series, parallel, bridge. Just be aware that the Oak Grigsby 4 way will give you bridge, parallel, neck, series, but it will certainly give you the combinations you want. I've got that very combination in several guitars and it works great. But, as was said, in position 4 (series) especially if you have your P-Rails in series, the tone is going to be extremely dark and generally unusable. Just a single P-Rail in series is almost too dark to be useful.

                  So I'm going to wire to get : neck, parallel, bridge and mute.

                    If you add a push pull for phase, series might become useful in conjunction with that.
