HELP! is this wiring possible?

hey guys im in the middle of a new build and its coming along (slowly) but i was thinking about the wiring possibilities today... is it possible to have 2 humbuckers, and 2 push/pull knobs and a 3 way toggle switch... the volume push pull would allow for a in/out phase and the tone push/pull would allow for series/parallel can you help pleaseeee :)

My recent tele build included this as part of the wiring. It's actually not terribly complicated. You run the bridge ground to one of the switches and have it go to ground in one position and the neck positive (on the three way toggle) in the other position. That's your series parallel. Next, you run the neck positive and negative (straight from the pickup before the switch) and in the normal position, the neck negative goes to ground and neck positive to the switch. In the other position, neck negative goes to teh switch and neck positive goes to ground. There's your in/out of phase.

No diagrams that I am aware of. I drew my own schematic and diagram. I don't have a scanner and no computer program that is very good for diagrams, but I will see if I can whip something up (if I can remember after the kids are in bed).

Base it on the Jimmy Page wiring diagram, just leaving out the coil splitting.

Alternatively, you could use a 4-way switch enabling the series/parallel switching and use the spare push-pull for coil splitting. It'd be easier to do that way too.

Combine this

http://www.**********************/pro...e1Tone003.html

with this

http://www.**********************/pro...-Parallel.html

and leave out the coil taps.

Props to **********************, I'm going to buy something from them just for all the wiring headaches they've saved me.
