P-Rails in Tele neck w/ 5 way switch

[Jeremy Palmer]

Hey guys I've got a quick question here. I have a Nashville Tele that I've been wanting to convert to a two pickup guitar with a P-90 in the neck. Well, I found a pretty cheap P-Rails neck pickup, so I pulled the trigger. The question is, how to go about wiring this sucker? I'd like to use the 5-way switch I have in place, but I don't have to. I realize I'll most likely have to put a mini toggle switch somewhere. I also plan on flipping the P-Rails so the rail is next to the fretboard. There was a post on this earlier, but didn't really explain anything, so... What would you guys do?

I ywould forget the mini switch, and get a Super switch. You can literally pick which sound youm want for each of the 5 positions.

For example:

Bridge
Bridge, strat neck
Bridge P90
Humbucker
P90
