Welcome! Does this help?  Ignore the "schematic" in that picture. Look at the pics of the switches, find the one that looks most like yours. |

The one I have here looks exactly like the 5 way import lever switch.

Well, there you go then. Except that your scheme is numbered with respect to the actual lever position (1-5) rather than lug numbers. Lug numbers will be 1-2-3 from left to right, the unnumbered one underneath is the P for that side of the switch.

Thank you very much, bro. I'm upgrading a cheap strat that was my first guitar and I really wanted to do something with that kind of sounds!

Just for the record: When you say "the unnumbered one underneath is the P for that side of the switch" you mean that is the common lug, right?

Right. "P" is for "pole", which is the same as "common".
Oh, and: Hello and Welcome!
