    then... no idea...
    double-check your wiring and be sure that your switches are shorting the lugs as expected in your diagram.
    DPDT on/on/on switches can implement the center position in two different ways so, it is important to know it.
    By the way I've heard the pups described I was expecting a smaller coil on the bottom, just for hum cancellation. Of course the covers come right off and the coils were the same size. Think big Mac w/o tomato & lettuce. I put a request through SD cust svc, and they say 'Have you checked the forums?"

    I followed the SD JB diag for coil-splitting and it sounds great, but it has green and black going to the middle of the switch, nothing on one side, grd on the other. white and bare to grd. red to 5-way, to isolate the Adjustable/south pup. I know enough to be dangerous! Thanks for your help!

    Hi,

    I really don't know what wires correspond to what coil in the case of stacked pickups. Maybe Evan Skoop or Jeremy (from SD) can answer you such a question.

    What I can say is that, usually, what you get with the typical splitting (red & white to ground) is the powerfuller pickup. I am not clear if the top pickup has more output than the lower pickup in stacks but, in any case, it's easy to determine.
    Wire first red & white to ground and check the output and character of the sound then, wire red & white to black wire of the same pickup.
    In that way, you will know what option likes you more, independently of it is selecting the upper or lower coil and, maybe, you will like more the upper in the middle and the lower in the neck... who knows it!.
