Inner Coils in parallel with 3-way swich?

[taildragger]

I was wondering if it was possible to split in paralell the inner coils of 2 humbuckers with a 3-way switch? Posistion 1 Bridge, Middle posistion split in paralell inner coils(SLUG's), Posistion 3 Neck. If possible, can someone explain to me how to wire 2 4-conductor Duncan pickups in this configuration?

I think it is not possible with a standard Gibson toggle switch. You need a switch with second pole (DPDT) for that. I changed my master pot to a push/pull.

So it's possible with a push/pull master pot?

Yup, just follow this schematic with these slight changes:

1. Connect the red/white wires of the neck pup to the other side of the switch.

2. I'd ground the top lugs rather than the bottom, so the switch is activated when pulled.
