EDIT: stripped of mind-numbing poll by sumgai, 4/11/17 - all postings intact, but ProBoards mistakenly thinks that I'm merseymale... what a laugh!
HSS 3Vol 1Vari Tap 3way toggle:
I have a rickie type I put a mini bucker in the bridge & was happy. I used the bridge tone to variable tap the bridge & was happier... Then I thought why not put the spare Pick up in the centre for a 3 pup rick? When I tried things went west! :-(
I want 1st position Midd pup 2nd position Midd + Bridge parallel pups 3rd position bridge pup & neck pickup to come in via its Volume, like Gilmour's strat
Any ideas..?

Where? Two places. 1 - You didn't read the RULES. < --- Click it! 2 - You added a poll without sensible choices for answers. (apparently a ploy for extra attention) You don't wanna be that guy, seriously. After this thread is closed, post a new thread in the Guitar Wiring forum, without a poll. Thanks.

merseymale-
Sorry but I had to move your post, as reTrEaD noted it doesn't belong in the schematics section. And removing or revising the poll is also a worthwhile suggestion . . .
What, exactly, is not working as you wish?
If we're going to be able to help troubleshoot this from afar, we'll need a diagram of what you wired.

Not sure how a poll is added but I'm sorry for any annoyance I've caused

That's OK, no harm done. Let's get back to your query:
Let's start with what type of switch it is that you have. Is it like a Gibson-style toggle?
What you want can probably be easily done, depending on the type of switch. If it's just a regular three-way toggle, then the wiring for the middle and bridge pups to the 3-way switch will be just as with any SG/LP. I assume the B and M pups are getting a master V and T for the both of them?.
So, SG/LP master V and T wiring, and then the neck pup is added with a blend pot. It can be just blended into the output, after all the B and M wiring. You would wire the volume control "across" the mid pup, "Hot" in from the pup to the CW lug, wiper to the output. CCW lug is grounded. Mid pup neg.(-) is likewise grounded.
