Had a guy with an H custom who wanted just two controls but also wanted to have multiple effects. Came up with this one that does Volume/Tone, Single Coil (either coil), Reverse Phase, Parallel and Series.  |

fretsI am using DIY LC, too. But it looks quite different than yours. For example, the pots in my are just the underside, whereas the pots in yours is the full pot from top to bottom. Also, the lines in mine cannot do 90 degree turns. Soft curves only. If i want a 90 turn, i have to join 2 different lines. The version i am using is 4.17 What version are you using?

Interesting, I guess you don't really need the Volume and Tone at the same time. If you can figure a way to add a 1~2nF cap in series with just the first coil to ground in pos 5, you'll have a more useful "HOoP" tone, where the bass comes from one coil and the highs from the other, and the crossover range is canceled. You can center it in the 3-3.5kHz range for just a less piercing tone, but it also sounds great in the 1kHz range for a more dramatic effect.

Jack😸,
I draw my pots out in an open source drawing program called Gimp. Then I import them into the program using the image icon.

Jack,
I use lines instead of wires. The version I’m using is the most recent release a couple of months ago.

I think I'm reading the switch part wrong as looks like 90% is at ground
Dark grey is used as ground as it goes to the base of the pot.
Orange , white and blue touch the dark grey
As well as the like green and light grey
The Br on the pickup and NS

frets, thanks for the tip about Lines vs Wires. I just found the Lines object in the Shapes collection. Looks like I still have to resort to joining two lines instead of being able to create turns in a single line, but at least the two lines snap together pretty easily. Thanks again.
