Re: Esquire wiring
Er, what precisely do you mean by two wire humbucker?
a) Single conductor + shield?
b) Two conductor + shield?
If the case of two con + shield, the wires of your HB could be hot and coiltap or either end of the HB as a whole. This will determine what trick wiring you can perform.
If your HB turns out to have a coiltap, it would be possible to immitate the Seymour Duncan personal Esquire wiring schematic BUT the sonic variations will not be quite the same. Your version would bring a large change in volume and RF hum.

If I have offended anyone because of my lack of knowledge or technical savvy, please let me be the first to excuse my inept ability to explain my self. It is just a shield and a hot wire, I am finishing up a esquire with this pickup and would like to utilize the 3 way switch. Thank you............

Re: Esquire wiring
no not at all, no worries. i dont have a diagram and i dont think duncan has one like that.
basically youd attach the hot wire to the common tab on one side of the switch.
a treble roll off cap to one tab. i like to use a .01 or .015 value anything more is too much for my tastes
the wire to the tone control to the middle tab
and nothing to the other
this diagram shows how to wire the volume and tone contols:

run a wire from the common tab on the switch where you soldered the hot wire from your pup to the place where the black wire from the pup in the diagram. the shield should be grounded to the volume pot casing like the bare and green wires in the diagram.
