Fender S-1 switching

[Davey]

it confuses the **** out of me

i got the '05 catalogue in front of me and it shows the HH 5 way switching. once with the switch up and once with the switch down.. and i just cant draw a line and say ah-ha! this is how it works..

cos one on graphic is selects one single coil, but on the other it does the exact illogical oposite..

i guess i have to invest more than 30 seconds of thought into it =P

Re: Fender S-1 switching

it's like the switch 'deactivates' the inner (or outer) coils, but in the positions 1 and 5 the pups are either in series (swithch up) or paralel (switch down) plus there's some other stuff going on, like in the middle positions, the inner coils of the humbuckers being paralel with eachother etc etc.. i'll try to get a pic of it up

Here's the S1 wiring diagram:

btw - Right-click this and save it to your hard drive, to save me a little bandwidth.

Re: Fender S-1 switching

The arrows are just the traditional way of showing switch contacts in a schematic.
