Prails

[Imsonew]

Hello! I am building my first guitar. It is a tele thinline and I want to put prails in it. The controls would be as follows:

Master Tone
Master Volume
3 Way Pickup Selector
3-Way DPDT on-off-on switch to control mode of neck pickup
3-Way DPDT on-off-on switch to control mode of bridge pickup

I have found some wiring diagrams close to this, and I found a guitar that's wired just like this, but I am not exactly sure what to do.
Does anyone understand how to do this or have any helpful tips?

Here is a video that has the guitar with the same wiring I'd like. He starts talking about it around 2:00

Thank you!

Re: Prails

Hi Imsonew, and welcome to the forum! [emoji2]

I have something that should work for you. I have to admit, though, that I didn’t watch the video so if the answer to this is in there I apologize (the wife is sleeping nearby and I didn’t want to disturb her). You didn’t mention whether you wanted the center position of the DPDTs to be series or parallel humbucker, so I assumed series. If that’s wrong just let me know and I’ll re-draw it.

Anyway, this should get you where you want to go! [emoji1303]

Enjoy!
