Here is a cool wiring mod I conjured up with the help of a Seymour Duncan diagram and EB 'Deaf Eddie' ( http://www.deaf-eddie.net ) - who, might I add, is one of the soundest and most genuinely helpful guys around.
The mod is for guitars equipped with two four-conductor humbuckers, master volume/tone, and a 3-way toggle.
The extra switches needed are:
2x on/on/on DPDT
3x on/on DPDT
What each switch does:
The pale-blue switches are the on/on/on switches and they put the coils of each pup in series/split/parallel.
The orange switch wires the pups in series together.
The yellow switch is phase reversal.
The purple switch is a kill-switch (optional)
I think this should open up a lot of new sounds! Although, you may have to drill a few holes. . . :D
I haven't gotten this checked, yet, but it looks okay :)
Have fun!
Cheers,
Joe
