HH Wiring with 5-Way Switch and Spin-a-split

[scarletSovereign]

Recently got an SD Pegasus and Sentient set. I couldn't find an existing wiring diagram for what I want though. I'm just starting to grasp pickup wiring, but I still get pretty confused, so some assistance would be much appreciated

I plan to use a standard 5-way switch, 1 volume pot, and 1 spin-a-split for the neck pup.

Based on the fact I want to use a standard 5-way, I came up with the following positions:

1. Bridge
2. Bridge & Neck
3. Neck
4. Bridge (Split) & Neck
5. Bridge (Split)

This is the wiring diagram I came up with:



I'm hoping I'm at least in the right ballpark area, and that I'm not too in over my head :laughing:

These were the diagrams I referenced:

Any takers?

Yoir wiring looks correct to me exept one unnecessary wire. The black one going from the back of the pot to the third lug on the upper right hand. In other words the black wire going from the back of the volume pot to the lugs which are otherwise unused. You can errase that wire, your wiring will work either with or without that black wire (it is conected to no where).

Thanks! That wire was confusing me. Is it doing anything in the Duncan diagrams either?

Anyway, I was bold yesterday and tried it out, and it does in fact work. The only thing is that the spin split seems to split at 0% and 100% and do full humbucker anywhere between. I'll probably leave it, since I wasn't planning to do much blending, but any idea why that might be?
