Series/parallel or coil tap

Hi all
I've posted this on the Eggle guitars forum, but suspect there may be more traffic here?
The Berlin Pro has no tone control, just a rotary 3-way coil tap that isn't working that well. The guitar is quite bright sounding, so I think a tone will be a better option for me.
[color=#000000]I was going to do a straight coil tap but then got thinking about series - parallel instead. How close sounding is parallel to a single coil, and is there less difference in the drop in volume?[/color]
[color=#000000]I was concerned the parallel mode would be sampling over a wider string length so not really sound like a single at all, though some on youtube suggest it does. I quite like the idea of being hum cancelling but it isn't the be-all for me, hell, I own a Telecaster! [/color][color=#000000]I've gone for Alpha 500k push-push pots for volume and tone so should have plenty of options available.[/color]

[color=#000000]Any thoughts either way?[/color]
[color=#000000]Cheers[/color]
