(With a name like that, you're gonna fit right in here in The NutzHouse! )

My first glance response is, you show the metal frame of the 4-way switch going to the Volume pot, and I don't think that's what you intended. Please edit the image to show which terminal (lug) on that 4-way goes to the Volume pot. You can edit your message, replacing the old drawing with a new one, you don't need to make a new post.... or you can make a new post, it's all the same for us.

arkham-

Hello and Welcome to G-Nutz2!

I'm not able to really follow your diagram. I'm not saying that it's wrong, it just may be a bit too stylized for me to follow.

You show each of the P-Rails with 4 wires coming from the pickup and going to your slide switch. That is as it should be. But then coming out of the switch, there is only a single wire, which corresponds to the pickup's "hot" connection- but I'm not seeing a ground wire coming from the slide switches.

For the neck pickup, there is a blue wire marked "neck ground" wired to the lowest right-side lug of the 4-way Tele switch (which I assume is the common lug). I don't know whether that is shown in blue to correspond with the blue wire from the pickup, but more basically, where is that blue wire coming from?

As for the bridge pickup, I don't see a ground wire at all, just the one "hot" connection coming from the slide switch to the 4-way.

So, I need some clarification here.

arkham ,


That Seymour Duncan diagram looks good, it'll work for your purpose. Now, here's a diagram from our distant past, but it's exactly what you need to connect the pickups in parallel, series, or each one by itself:






Your assignment now is to put those two diagrams together, and post the results for us to review. Where Duncan shows a wire from the Mustang switch going to the LP-style pickup selector, that's where you want to substitute the 4-way Tele switch as shown above. The major difference will be, you cannot take the green/black wire from the Neck pickup straight to ground (as in Duncan's diagram) - it must go to the pickup selector as shown. If that's not done correctly, then you won't have a series connection, and other positions might also be "dead".
