P Rails wiring in strat.

[hendrixstrat]

I know there are many ways to wire these things, but I'm trying to use what I have. I had hum/hum set-up in one of my strats..I removed the pickups, and left the rest wired up..It had 2 push pulls to split the buckers, and a 5 way switch..Does anyone know a diagram to wire 2 mini toggles into that set-up to be able to get all 3 functions of the pickup?

Interesting project.

There are actually four ways to run the two coils of a P-Rails. I find uses for all of them.

Assuming that your guitar has just two controls (master volume and master tone), I would rejig the push-pull pot switching to govern the pickup modes. Unless you add a third pickup, it would be wisest to change to a three-way lever selector switch wired like a modern Telecaster.
