    Wiring Schematic for P-Rails in a Strat?

    I found this, searching the internet, but in this diagram, they are using 2 mini-toggle switches instead of push/pull pots. Maybe this picture will help show you what I am wanting.

    Wiring Schematic for P-Rails in a Strat?

    Hello! Does anyone have a wiring schematic for a Strat-style guitar, using 2 P-Rails, 2 Volumes, 1 master tone, 3-way lever switch? The 2-volume pots would be the Push-Pull's to get the single coil, P-90, and Parallel switching. Any help is appreciated! Thanks
