Esquire wiring idea

Tell me if this is possible with a standard three-way switch -
pos. 1 - Standard Vol & Tone control
pos. 2 - No Tone control
pos. 3 - Bypass Volume and Tone

I tried to figure out a way to do it, but with my limited knowledge it didn't seem feasible.

I had another idea that might work, it's my second choice -
pos. 1 - Off
pos. 2 - Vol & Tone
pos. 3 - Bypass Vol & Tone

On paper it looks like it will work, but I have two hot wires going into the output jack in my homemade diagram and I don't know if that would work.


So, will either one of these ideas work? If so, how do I do it properly?

Your first control scenario is 100% do-able, do a forum search for Esquire schematics and you'll find one or two that will work well.
I used the same schematic on one of my Esquires with wonderful results.
