But the problem I saw was having the pickups linked in series on the 5-way on the common lug - it makes it so you can't isolate the pickups anymore and control them differently, like with a blower. Now, it appears the only way to get the bridge humbucker is with the toggle switched, which also overrides the 5-way. It looks like you have to do 2 switch moves (toggle and 5-way) to go from position 5 to position 4, as described. Unless someone can point out how I'm reading this wrong? (Totally possible - that's a difficult drawing to start with)
