Wiring question

I've got a CS NOS '56 Stratocaster fitted with a 3 way switch - has anyone fitted a 5 way and done the following switching;

1) Bridge

2) Bridge/Middle

3) Middle

4) Bridge/Neck

5) Neck

Basically the same as a usual 5 way switching sequence apart from position 4 - i've never really liked that 'clucky' neck middle/sound - not too keen on the bridge/middle either...




Any wiring diagrams to get bridge/neck?

You can't get that arrangement with a standard 5-way unless you switched the bridge to middle position and middle to the 1st. If you want bridge and middle in their standard positions, you'll need to get a true 5-way like a superswitch. Single wafer would do fine for this job.

I have a couple Stratocasters that I can run the bridge and neck together. It's a nice tone option. Kinda Telecaster.

I have the normal 5 way and then a push/pull pot (one Strat has a mini toggle) to add the neck to any selector switch setting. A real easy way to do it and have everything else "Strat-O-Tone".

7 way Strat !!
