Fender Electric XII

Post by robert(original) »

did they come with a 4 position roto switch?
i always thought it was 3 but upon looking up some info about wiring it appears that they came with 4, can anyone confirm or deny this?
im wanting to re-do the switch situation in my fake electric XII.
oh and if anyone can find a wiring diagram for a 3 pos roto switch that would be awsome, im looking right now but can't find much.

i've never messed with a 4 way rotary switch
i imagine it might be like a regular 5 way but -1 position.

yeah,in my research(mostly on offset) on the XII it was a 4 way.

i know the Baja Teles have a 4 way switch, if you are thinking of how to wire it up, altho it's not a rotary switch

My Gibson Ripper bass has a four way rotary - neck/bridge/both/phased.

Is this at all helpful?
