4 Push/Pull, P-Rails, Humbucker, and jimmy page wiring

Hello, I have found this forum to be quite helpful in the past, but I have finally decided to post as I cannot find any instances of my problem on the vast internet.

Recently I put a pearly gates bridge humbucker in my stock '08 Les Paul and wired it for coil-splitting. Yes it is a PCB one, and yes I did swap the pot out from the circuit board and solder a new one on. Works great.

I then purchased 4 push/pulls, a P-rails neck pickup, and all the wiring and resistors I need to go remove that circuit board, and go full-blown Jimmy Page. What I didn't realize is the P-rails requires an extra switch to utilize all the sounds available.

My question is, Is there any way to achieve Jimmy Page wiring AND every P-rails combo with only 4 push/pulls? I am planning to split the Pearly Gates with the bridge volume pot, and control the P-Rails with the neck
V/T pots to maximize its versatility, I now have one remaining pot to wire either phase shifting or series/parallel. I was hoping someone here could think of a clever way to wire, say, the series mod to the remaining pot, but then double up by wiring the phase mod to a pot already in use?

Please don't just recommend Triple Shots. They seem awesome but I'm not sure I want to go that route just yet.


Thank you for your advice! I am open to installing an additional switch, but I have nowhere to put it without routing a hole somewhere! maybe I should just forget series/phase for now and build an onboard effect....

Well you could wire the middle position to be out of phase a la the Peter Green mod. Then you could use the spare push/pull for series/parallel.
