I need a wiring diagram which includes a bridge humbucker, a volume push pull, a tone, and a esquire tone switch. What I want is a lone humbucker that has that esquire tone switch-ability, and is able to switch Series/Parallel with the push pull. Now I got the diagrams for the esquire and S/P but I need some help mushing them together.

Questions:
1) Is this possible?
2) Is this wise?

It would certainly work. Will you like it? Just go ahead and try it, and tell us!

All you need to do is combine your two drawings.

In the Seymour Duncan drawing, route the BLACK lead from the p/p switch (shown going from the p/p switch to the volume pot) INSTEAD to the Esquire 3-way switch and soldered to lug #1, where in the Esquire drawing it shows the pup's hot lead (in white) - AND, that's the only change you need to make. The lead from Esquire 3-way switch lug #8 goes to the volume pot, just as shown in the Esquire drawing, where the black lead was shown in the S-D drawing.

Everything else is just as shown in the two drawings, no change to the p/p switch, no change to the 3-way pup selector.
