Hey! I have a Charvel promod with two Buckers in it.. Thnk I have a Custom 4 in the bridge and a 59n (may be mod magnet, sorry, been awhile).. The issue Im having is when I switch the three way to the neck, sometimes I get nothing, or a thin sound. I reflip the switch and get full tone... Im sure its wiring, but could it be switch? Sadly, doesnt have a whole lotta use.. Trying to get back into playing, so wanna get this ironed out... Thanks
 
Check the wiring for that neck pickup. If the connection is solid, then replace the switch. They do fail now and then.
 
Sounds like the switch. If it's the typical 3-way toggle, you may just need to clean the contacts. You can also adjust the contact if they're not making proper contacts.
However, the switch isn't so expensive that you need to "fix" the existing one. But definitely try some Deoxit spray in the contact area first.
