    Default Need some help wiring my strat

    Hey guys,
    I have a 5 way selector switch and want to re-wire my strat so that I can have the pickups go like this:

    Neck
    Neck/Middle,
    Bridge/Neck
    Bridge/Middle
    Bridge

    I have one of these switches in my strat (sorry that pics not so clear)

    Um,

    I don't know if there's an easy way to do that really...I'd recommend adding a new switch entirely, as in the 'neck on' mod:

    With that you can switch on the neck PU with the bridge.

    I did roughly the same by using a 3-position switch for neck and bridge and wired the middle pup to it's own volume pot. That way I could get any combination with just a 3-pos sw and the 2nd volume.
