Series wiring for Squier VM Jaguar

[paspallum]

Hey
I have a Squier VM Jagaur which I've re-finished in nitro and installed some Antiquity II's in (see pics)

I want to add a series wiring option for the middle pickup setting (both pickups on)

I can't find a single thread or post anywhere online where anyone has done this or explains it - well there are one or two but the diagrams don't make any sense to me very limited details, instruction or follow-ups - and they are using the low pass switch

Johnny Marr has the series as an option on his Signature jag - and he's argueably the most persistant and sucsessful jaguar player in history

I love the low pass switch - a lot of people think it does nothing - and on a clean amp it is subtle - but try it with a Big Muff - HUGE tonal change!

I'm hoping someone on the Pickup Lounge can give me better and clear directions of how to turn my upper rhythm / mud switch into a switch for changing from paralell to series

Paspallum

Er, how much use do you make of the Bass Cut (AKA "choke") Switch? It would be very much simpler to add Series/Parallel switching in the pickup selection switch cavity.

IMO, the key to the Marr wiring is the employment of the same 4-way lever selector switch as seen on some Telecaster variants.

Hey thanks for the reply
I use that choke switch a lot - its vital to Johnny Marrs sound too - I don't play live - I use this guitar for recording - so i don't need a fast way to switch like johnnys 4 way

I don't use that upper bass circuit switch - ever
