  • Wiring Advice Needed - 5-way switch, 3 HBs, coil-split

    I've got a Schecter Hellcat VI that has three mini-humbuckers, a 5-way switch, and a push/pull pot for coil-split. Here's a link to the wiring diagram:

    My question is, can I modify the wiring so that the middle pickup splits to the other coil so that in the 2 & 4 positions the split coils are hum canceling?

    Thanks!

    i dont think you can with that setup, but if you wanted to, i think you can add a couple of mini switches to get that setup

      You can do it if you use one of those 4-pole Super Switches.

      STEWMAC.COM : Super Switch

      This would allow you to use what ever coil you wanted on the splits.

      You just have to come up with the circuit.

      I did something similar recently by modifying a Megaswitch.
      It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense; it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure. — Albert Einstein
