P-Rails wiring help.

Hi all.

2 P-Rails, 2 volumes, 2 tones, 3 way, 3 mini toggles

I want to use the 3rd mini toggle (a DPDT) for series to parallel for each pickup. Will I need a 4th mini toggle or will just one extra mini toggle do the job ?

I would like to be able to use the neck in parallel with the bridge in series, or vice versa. I'm not interested in out of phase options.

Closest diagram on the SD site is this one.

The pickups are going into this ...

Any help appreciated.
 
Re: P-Rails wiring help.

To put coils in series/parallel for each pickup you need a dedicated DPDT on/on switch.
Combining it with the other 2 remaining switches, you can get the 4 sounds from each pickup (humbucker, parallel, split north, split south). Look at the P-Rails diagrams to see what you can do with two pull/pushes


Thank you for the help ! Is there a diagram for this on the SD site ? The nearest I could find was the one mentioned in my initial post. I won't be doing the wiring myself and I need a diagram to give to the tech.

Thanks again.
