Ibanez RG 170 H-S-H

The guitar is an Ibanez RG 170 H-S-H 5 way 1 vol 1 tone.
I want to replace the bridge (bucker) and the (single) middle with some duncans,Im keepinn the same configuration,just wanna replace the P.O.S. pick ups.
The bridge pick up is wired (stock )to split the coils via the 5 way switch.
Im having problems finding a diagram that has this config.:smack: Ive found coil split via a push pulll, but not a 5 way
Im sure I can figure out the stock wireing on the Ibanez,but would really like to find a schematic.
Any help is more than welcome.
Thnks

I'd say just find where the pickups themselves are wired and replace them wire for wire. On SD pickups, keep the white and red on humbuckers twisted & soldered together if you don't need the split function (and shield the end with electrical tape). I think black on humbuckers and white on single coils is the output, but the manuals should tell you.

Then find one that is. It's not hard. You can do it. Are you new to electronics?
Ive been trying to find the schematic to try to make it easier for installation,I know its not hard,and -no- Im not new to electronics.
I,ll just do what I had intended and use my Fluke and ck out the RGs 170 wiring., I found the RGs 170 wireing sch via there web sight,Ill have to ck it and make sure that there color codes match with whats in there schem against my RG 170.
