I'm racking my brain around the wiring and can't seem to get what I want working. Current pickup configuration is HH strat with a 5 way super switch, 1 vol, and 2 tones. The pickups are a 59/custom bridge and a 59 neck. I had previously set this up with 1 vol per pickup and a shared tone knob with the following config on the super switch 1- full bridge, 2- inner coils of both, 3- full neck and bridge, 4- outer coils of both, 5- full neck. A lot of these positions seemed unusable to me and muddy. I went through and found the best combinations. What I want is 1 vol, 1 tone per pickup, and then the following on the 5 way super switch....... 1 - full bridge, 2 - bridge slug coil, 3 - both full pickups, 4 - neck slug coil, 5 - full neck.
I tried the wiring diagram on the SD website similar to this, but it has a standard switch. I tried to translate it in my mind to work with the super switch, but it has the red and white wires together which is leading to the screw coil being the one available in the split instead of the slug.......this doesn't matter so much for the neck, but the bridge is a hybrid pickup with a stronger slug coil. I looked through the dimarzio wiring diagrams and translated the colors to the SD colors and it's still not right.
Does anyone have a diagram for this setup?
Here is the SD diagram I've used that seems to split to the screw coil
Here is the Dimarzio... a wonky thing here is that there's no cap on the bridge tone.
