Rails wiring help,please..3 way switch ?

[TinEar]

I have a HR/CR/CR setup in a strat currently with a 5 way fender switch. The inbetween positions are useless to me. (no coils are split or anything)

Do any of you guys know where to find a schematic to wire these pickups individually to a 3 way fender tele type switch ? Can this be done and still have the tone controls work for 2 of the positions ?

I browse in here quite often, but hardly ever post. I've seen and learned alot from you guys and am hoping someone can help on this.

Thanks in advance, Greg

A 3-way and a 5-way are the same except that the 5-way has two extra detents. Get a 3-way and replace it wire for wire with your 5-way. It will automatically give you what you want.

I guess it's too easy. I'll give it a shot.
