"Oh, you dont want to look in there" Allright, this has elements of other guys' mods, not sure where credit is due, exactly. Features: 5 way switch: 1. M 2. N+M 3. N 4. N+B 5. B Phase switch (puts neck in opposite phase. Slide switch) Bridge Override or "Blower" (Enables bridge pup only, vol and tone out of circuit) Master Tone pot. Here's the diagram And here's where i put the switches: The slide switch is pretty ugly, i'll make it purty on my next pickguard. Also, i dont know that this is the best place for the blower, but it works pretty well. Jam night at Dude's place tonight, so, we'll see. In the future, I'll prolly use dual stacked pot and have tones for both neck and bridge. And I want to do something that gives me series tones, prolly the double barrel, maybe just a a toggle. Tones: Well, afa the 5way, the different tone is N+B: Twwwannngggy. It's cool for countryish. The phase switch (when N+B or N+M) makes it thin and hollow. Good for special fx, I havent cranked the amp phased yet, so we'll see. Blower: this is really cool. Its just a little bit louder and treblyer than regular position 5. Nice to be able to hit that for full power blast. Oh, something i noticed: with the phase switch to the right, its in phase for N+M, and out for N+B. And viceversa. Going to have to see if i can make it inphase/oop for both combos one way on the slider.

For that to be the case, M + B must likewise be out of phase. You need to swap wires on one of the 2, doesn't matter which one.

Still, i guess i'd just have to swap phase of either M or B. Took 'er out to jam with the guys, dayumm! Sounds awesome. Even the oop tones I could use on stuff, like the cleanish rythym part on Cheap Sunglasses. Then I'd hit the blower for the chorus.

JFP-
Sorry, I missed that you'd eliminated the M + B. Just pick one of the 2, and swap the hot for the ground, and all will be well.
