Series/Split/Parallel with Screw Coil

[orangecountycarl]

I probably have this correct, but before I make a mistake (and waste a new pack of stings in the process), I was hoping to get confirmation from wiring gurus that my wiring diagram is accurate. I have a middle,RWRP single coil (APS-2) to be used with a JB (SH-4). I prefer the screw coil nearest the tailpiece to be active for best possible quack when split in conjunction with the middle pickup.

My understanding is that to be hum canceling with a RWRP pickup, the screw coilis the one to be active (good for my plan). I also want an On/On/On switch to choose series/split/parallel (forgoing the autosplit in position 2....I'll just do that manually).

The following link shows the wiring for choosing the Screw coil:

My homemade diagram shows how I would wire the On/On/On switch to use the Screw coil for the split portion. Would this be accurate? Thanks, guys!

According to this diagram

You want the red+white to go to hot to split to the screw coil.

However, I was under the impression that when red+black go to hot, the pickup goes parallel. Although I think the white would also have to go to ground with the green, but I'm not sure what you get with red+black to hot and white NOT to ground with green.

In that diagram, red+white go to the slug coil (inner coils).

Yes, but if you see the Note to the side that says to route them to the volume input to split to the screw coils.

It helps if you pay attention to what the switch is doing in each position.

I would do it this way:

Thanks Dr.New and beaubrummels for your input. I'll have to try this diagram. :fingersx:
