jocke Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I have a Marquee on the way and cant find a wiring diagram or description of what the 5 way pickup switch does. I can always find out when I get it by switching and tapping with a screwdriver on the pickups to see which ones are on and not. But something to guide me would be nice.

Mine is redburst with gold hardware but I would have prefer the white with tortouise guard. But as it was £200 I hit the buy it now button.
