Hey everyone
I ordered a strat pickguard with Humbucker in bridge and single coil in neck
1 volume and a slot for a 3 way blade switch
Checked Seymour schematics only has option with push pull pot

Can anyone direct me to a schematic that will allow me to wire up this setup
I would also like the Humbucker to auto split when in middle position on blade switch giving me two single coils mixed.

Any help much appreciated

Hey there got all parts today including 3 way strat blade switch
Problem is when I line switch up as in diagram rows of slugs are opposite to what's in scematic. Make sense ?
Meaning the contact slugs on right side offset and are last down on that side.
Apologize as I'm intermittent level at wiring
Seems like mirror effect
Any help much aprreciated

Hard for me to tell for sure, but it shouldn't make any difference... they're just in a little different position from the diagram, but you should be able to wire it the same and be fine.

If not, you'll have to think of the diagram as a mirror image. If that's the case and if it gives you trouble, just say the word and I'll re-draw it tomorrow (I'm at a gig tonight).

Thanks!

Do you know a brand & part number for that switch? I may be able to look it up and find out how it works.

Okay, just as I thought, there's no actual difference to the wiring... it just LOOKS a little different. Truth be told, I drew that switch from memory and just got it backwards which side was "higher." For what it's worth, I re-saved the correct version of the switch so I don't cause more confusion in the future!

Anyway, here's the corrected drawing for you:

As you can see, the wires are all going to the same lugs, but the layout is more correct now.

Sorry about the confusion!

Your local guitar store tech probably has some soldering skills, but no real understanding of how and why an electric guitar works. Either that or he/she is just too lazy to look into solutions for non-typical requests!
