need some telecaster wiring ideas

[Left_Hand_Strat]

Hi all,

Right, now as we know, the strat underwent some changes and a wiring overhaul a short while ago (which i never posted pics of... ) and it is now the turn of my Chord telecaster.

I won't post pics yet, but I need some diagrams and some options to contemplate.

I have a rails pickup for the bridge T-style shape, humbucking, and a T style rails Humbucking for the neck. I have one push pull pot for the tome position, a standard pot for Vol. and a four way switch.

I want to work with what I have got, so what I was thinking of was having a coil split/tap on the Bridge PU only, leaving the Neck PU as a HB all the time.

the switching with the four way switch would work like this:

1: Bridge
2: Bridge and Neck series
3: Bridge and Neck Parallel
4: Neck

I don't know if I would ever require to split/tap the neck PU...

over to you guys,.

You could begin with this one. http://www.seymourduncan.com/support/wiring-diagrams/schematics.php?schematic=tele_2h_4ws

Simply redraw the third and fourth positions so that you get the selections to occur in the order that you require.

IMO, both humbuckers linked in series is likely to sound muddy.

hmmm, i wonder if its then possible to use the switch as a splitter...

so it would be like:

1: Bridge
2: both in series
3: both but with neck splt
4: neck only.

that then means the bridge pot would work independently, just how I want it....
