Hi Firstly I need to make it clear that I have no understanding of electronics and reading schematics. I would like to make Sumgai's mod (never satisfied.. thread) to my guitar, but can't make head or tails of the drawings. I don't have a super switch on the guitar, just the crappy one it came with, but I would like to practice (and stuff up) on that one before I break an expensive switch. I need someone to help me get the schematics down to a more dummy version like where to connect the actual wires to the different points. Please EDIT:

So as far as schematics i can tell you that the right most Symbol (triangle pointing down) is known as the 'ground'.
The symbols in the 'pot circut' box are: The squigley Z looking like one ,is a Resistor The one with a T shape is a capacitor.

Thanks png123, I've got the pot circuit built and all the switches ready, now I just need to connect the wires. That is confusing everything as I don't know if the pup wires should be connected to the dpdt switch first before going to the selector switch or the other way around...or a mix of connections. After some checking on the forum, I realise I should try to read some books as well to figure this thing out, but I'm afraid that may take a (long) while. Having a selector switch with only two sets(?) of connections and the schematic having 4 also confuses the issue.

Well technically Speaking the above is not really a schematic. I suggest you read the thread you got this post from. Maybe pm Sumgai (not a member any more ). fore some explanation

Hi
I've now tried my best to put wiring to the schematic. What I am trying to achieve with this, is the normal pup selections with the toggle switch up and the below with the switch down: 1 - N+B 2 - N+B+M 3 - M 4 - M+NxB 5 - NxB
Do you guys think it will work like that or do I need some serious changes?
Thanks Snaar
