bremen Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 (edited) [quote name='TRBboy' timestamp='1323105512' post='1459368'] So....... when I wire the switch in as per the diagram, will the pickup still be working the same as it does now, when it's in Humbucking mode? Also, just wondered how sure you are that that diagram's correct, because I've bought a switch and I'll have a go at it tomorrow night if you think it'll work! Cheers. [/quote] That diagram is correct for running series/parallel. If someone can show me how to upload a pdf I can show you a schematic for using a 3 way toggle for series/singlecoil/parallel.

TRBboy Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 Thanks for emailing the diagram to me bremen. I've just received another (used) Sandberg Basic today, which is the one I want to put the switch in. Typically, it is wired slightly differently! The push/pull volume pot is different, and has the white and red wires soldered to the circuit board and the green and black soldered together and taped off. I'm assuming that the white is the signal and the red is the ground (as it has the bare wire with it), so I guess I can just use the same terminals accordingly.

TRBboy Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 Well, after all that I wired up the switch this evening, and the single coil sound was just to weak to be any use to me, compared to the normal humbucking sound. Oh well, at least I hadn't drilled a hole for the switch yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
