school me in the ways of the super switch

[ralfcaetano]

i'm planning out a guitar build that involves me using a superswitch, a jazzmaster neck pickup, a seymour duncan jb humbucker, a volume, and a tone control... i'm planning to use the switch to get the following options (neck to bridge)

position 1: jm pup
position 2: jm pup + split humbucker
position 3: jm pup + full humbucker
position 4: split humbucker
position 5: full humbucker

how do i wire the switch to get these options in my baby (maybe a wiring diagram would be best)??? and what capacitor should i use for the tone pot on this guitar?

Re: school me in the ways of the super switch

If you are going to use a Fender pickup and an SD pickup together, you'd better check the polarity of the pickups before you start wiring things. If the screw coil of one attracts to the slug coil of the other, you should be in good shape.

Also google the Fender and SD wiring codes, because the wire colors mean different things on different manufacturers' pickups.

Make sure you've got those basic things covered before you start with the ninja wiring...
