    Default Push/pull pot wiring?

    I have a PRS Tremonti SE, and Ive just bought a set of PRS Tremonti USA Pickups for it. As the treble is four core, I fancy splitting the coils for a bit of tone variation.

    So, went and bought a push pull pot ( i love alliteration).

    Then got home and realised I wasnt sure how to wire it up

    Its one of the ones with a 6 pin base, in the style of
    oo
    oo
    oo

    with the pot itself on top

    Totally throwing this one open; hit me with a wiring diagram of what you think I should do, and Ill do it! Im handy enough with soldering and general pickup installation, just not sure how to do the switching!

    Thanks in advance

    Try Seymour Duncan for wiring fixes. I'm not sure what your control layout is but they cover just about everything.

    markb,

    THANK YOU for that link! Seymour Duncan is awesome for setting that up. I'll use this for my humbucker 2-coil tap setup on the hybrid STJ (Strat, Tele, Jazz)
