PRS Pickup Experts: Wire Color Question

I'm sure there is at least one 'expert' out there which knows this. I have picked up an HFS that has a black, white, red, and braided ground wire. I just want to wire it into a standard les-paul like 3-way switch (no split). Is the white the 'hot' and black+shielded the 'ground?' Is so, do I just tape off the red? Or should it be different than this?

Thanks
Chris

The Red wire is the "Tap" on PRS pickups (the equivalent of Duncan´s red+white wires soldered together) ;)

Thanks guys. So if I am not doing a coil tap, I would just tape off the red (as I would do if it were the white+red of a SD)? It makes sense but thought I would ask.

Thanks
