Is it possible using the 5-way Super Switch in a Strat with 3 Stack pickups, to do the following:
Position 1. Bridge full stack on
Position 2. Bridge and Middle Stacks split and wired in series.
Position 3. Middle full stack on
Position 4. Middle and Neck Stacks split and wired in series.
Position 5. Neck full stack on
I like the idea of noiseless stack pickups but want the option to combine them for an in series humbucking effect. I am guessing if you don't split off the bottom coil of the stack when putting them in series with other stacks, it will get too muddy. I figure the middle stack has to be RWRP.
There are some diagrams of 3 Stacks with super 5 way blades here on Seymour Duncan, but for the life of me, I can't tell if anything is in series. Can anyone help out? Is there a Super Switch diagram out there that does parallel/series wiring like this? I am not sure the below work like that.
