Yet another P-rails wiring thread: PRS / Rotary Switch

[derker]

I want to try and replace the Full Shred in the neck of my CE24 with a P-rails, and pair it up with the Custom in the bridge. I'm looking for some different sounds in a neck pickup and I think the P-rails could be cool.

Anyway, I currently have the guitar wired with 2 volume knobs and a 3-way switch, and was thinking of replacing one volume knob with the 5-way PRS rotary to control the P-rails configuration. Maybe parallel/series/P-90/rail/off ? Is that feasible?

Thanks!

Bump

Anyone have any experience wiring a PRS 5-way rotary? It shouldn't be too hard, but there are so many little terminals, I dont know where to solder anything! I'm trying to keep my Custom in the bridge and then put a P-rails in the neck, with the 5-way rotary controlling just the P-rails; parallel/serial/p-90/rails/off (killed)

Opinions are appreciated, thanks!

Take a look at this link: http://alexplorer.net/guitar/mods/rotary.html

I added it to your other thread just now, but in payment for my redundancy, I'll post another helpful link:http://www.skguitar.com/SKGS/sk/Images/diagrams/six_way_rotary.htm

Good luck with the wiring!
