Strat series/parallel HS wiring diagram with 5-way superswitch (not coil split)

[GAS_station]

Hello all. I'm trying to find a series/parallel HS wiring diagram using 5-way superswitch. I'd ike to avoid push-pull pots or add'l mini toggle switches.

HS split coil diagrams are pretty common and I already have a 5-way HSS strat so I'd like to try my JB in series/parallel with a single coil. Something like this:

1. JB Series
2. JB Parallel
3. JB parallel + SC
4. JB series + SC
5. SC​

Found an HH 5-way superswitch that partially covers it (attached).

Can anybody share thoughts on how to modify this diagram to get positions 3 and 4 with a SC?

Thanks in advance!

Erase the wires to the top two sets of lugs doing neck stuff on the top half of the switch from that diagram. On the bottom two sets of lugs, copy lugs 1-2 onto lugs 3-4 of the bottom two sets of lugs (because you want S>P>P>S you'll have to flip them when you copy), and then just use one of the top empty sets of lugs to add the neck in positions 3-5, making sure Common/Output from that set goes to the volume.

Thanks a lot for the guidance. It makes sense. I'll have a try over the weekend and post the results here.

Here's another way. This is how I like to wire a HB'er to a Superswitch.

It looks like the bridge is active and out of phase on position 5. Am I reading that wrong?

Yes. Red is shorted to green, (the screw coil), and white is shorted to black, (the stud coil). Both coils are shorted out and separated from each other. It's the quietest way to do it. Unconventional, but it works. Even with a 100' stage cable, it won't / can't pick up noise, even when it's off. Leaving only the SC on.

The JB is electrically this: (In position #5.)
