I'm trying to diagram how to wire 2 P-rails with 2 volume, 2 tone, 3-way switch, and FOUR push-pull pots (each tone / volume pot serves as a push-pull). This gives me four setting options for each pickup, same as the triple-shot ring would.
I found a diagram for something like this here: https://forum.seymourduncan.com/showthread.php?182628-P-Rails-4-Pushpulls. That diagram was a bit incomplete, not showing wiring to input jack or 3-way switch. I decided make my own diagram (sloppier than the original) to help ensure I had "wrapped my head" around how this was done, and to try to figure out the logic of why it does what it does.
After making my own diagram, I tried to follow the logic by looking at how the signal would travel in the various push-pull settings. But my understanding must be wrong, or my diagram, because I cannot understand why P-Rails split coil the way they do when you have one pot up and another down (see my discussion on my diagram, at the bottom). I was hoping some one could clue me in whether it's my faulty logic or a faulty diagram, and correct me as needed.
Thanks,
Ken
