Help with HSH Megaswitch wiring!

[myampisbetter]

Hey guys, so I'm trying to figure out how I'd go about wiring up a particular HSH setup with a Schaller Megaswitch-M. If possible, I'd like to have the following combinations:

1. Bridge Hum (SERIES)
2. Bridge Hum (PARALLEL) + Middle SC
3. Bridge Hum + Neck Hum (BOTH PARALLEL)
4. Neck Hum (PARALLEL) + Middle SC
5. Neck Hum (SERIES)

Would this be possible with the Megaswitch-M? I've gotten as far as I can on my own, but for whatever reason I'm just not understanding how to wire up the Megaswitch-M and this whole setup makes my brain hurt. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I am pretty sure you can't do that. Thing about the Megaswitch is that it is hardwired to give you just one thing with that pickup configuration. Go to the page you referenced, and look at the HSH6 configuration. That is what you get. The benefit is that all positions are humcancelling (unlike your idea).
You should be able to do what you with a Superswitch, though.

I'm actually using a Duncan Vintage Rails in the middle, so it will be hum cancelling, I forgot to mention that. That's the reason for wanting to put the neck and bridge into parallel. Bummer it can't be done with this switch, I'll look into a regular super switch. Thanks for the response and advice!!

Yes, the Vintage Rails is a good choice for the middle here. It might even be cool to have the 2 & 4 have both pickups in parallel, but in series with each other. If you decide to do some experimenting, I'd love to know what you discover.

Ahhh yes FANTASTIC idea!! I'll for sure give that a shot. Thanks for the tips!
