rails on a mustang

Post by matthoj »

k.
reworking my mustang for a dimarzio super distortion in bridge, and a tone zone in the neck. my question is:
does anyone know a way to use the three way selector as a coil split? is this possible?

we are trying so we can split each pickup... so we can retain original single coil mustang tones (well, somewhat) and then be able to have the dual humbuckers for heavy stuff...

what do you want each position of the switch to do? do you want it to be hum/off/sing? or something different?

single/off/hum. tried the above diagram and didnt work with dimarzios. in the left position, both coils were active but real quiet. in the right position it was super loud. off position worked.
