  • Ibanez 3SWLSC 5 way switch

    Can anyone show or tell me how to wire a set of SH-4’s to an Ibanez 3SWLSC 5 way switch? I’ve been pulling my hair out trying to figure it out.

    Guitar is Ibanez RG6003FM

    Welcome to the forum!

    Would you happen to have a pic of the switch?

        Neck side (as written on the PC board)
        GND = Bare
        "UPPER" COLD = Green
        "UPPER" HOT = Red
        "LOWER" COLD = White
        "LOWER" HOT = Black

        Bridge side
        OUT = Volume Pot Input
        GND = Volume Pot Ground
        GND = Green+Bare
        TAP = Red+White
        HOT = Black

          I wired it in that way, still getting terrible buzz when the strings are muted.

            Any chance the jack is wired backwards?

              You get buzz in all switch positions? Did you remember to put the bridge (not the pickup, the string bridge) ground back to the volume pot?

                The only connections I unsoldered were from the stock pickups to the switch, and the stock neck pickup to the volume pot..

                  Did you remember that the pickup bare wires ALWAYS go directly to ground on a pot casing, never via a switch?
