    Two pickups – 3 conductor wire ( hot, ground, ? ), 1 vol 1 tone, 3 position selector switch. Anybody have a wiring diagram?

    I was getting crazy a few years ago when I was trying to figure out the diagram, because the switch is made differently than a classic toggle and includes a series position (nothing selected in the middle rather than everything selected with a classic toggle switch). Attached is a diagram that seems to work if I get it right ! Just the labelled “neck” and “bridge” positions on the switch are reversed if you pull the switch in the direction they are written to.

    Thank you for the diagram. I’m still not sure what the third wire does.

    My guess is it is housing ground.

      Chris, many thanks. This is exactly what I was looking for. Volume pot with cap and resistor, etc…
