HSS wiring

Hello everybody,

I have a new idea for a mod on my strat. I need one schematic that i can not find. I want to be able to switch my single coils in series/parallel. When the 5 way is in position middle/neck. How can i do this ? (i'm going to put a phase reversal for each single coil).
 
Re: HSS wiring

I have one of my Strats wired this way. (And welcome to the forum.)

But it depends on how you mean this. Do you want a switch so that when in the N/M position, you can switch back and forth between series/parallel. Or, do want the notch position to automatically be series instead of parallel?

That sounds a lot like Fender's S-1 switching. See if some schematics are available.

Simple. Like this: (The diagram shows humbuckers, but just wire your singles the same.)

The pickup #1 and #2 wires just go to the 5-way as if they were the neck and middle hot wires. By doing it like this, you don't have to worry about having a "dead" position on the 5-way when in the series mode.
