Position 3 M on its own
BLUE is hooked on to the COMMON OUTPUT
GREEN hooks up to the Position 3 on a Pole that Goes to OUTPUT
(So just linked Both sides of the Middle Pickup to each other)
PLUS it links up to the COMMON on another than links up to GROUND in Postion 3

I've modified it. Thank you.

Green: Good call. The green was supposed to link to ground only when on position 3; the purple of the pickup is always linked to out.

Blue: I'm not seeing the Blue on Common Out as you stated. Can you please elaborate?  I think that you are referring to the purple.

The function is as follows: 
For the the OOP Series     - The lower right quadrant of the super switch is for BxM OOP and NxM OOP.

                                      - The lower left quadrant of the super switch is for the B and N.

Hello and Welcome to G-Nutz2!

On my screen, the "purple" wires look just like the blue ones. That may be a cause for confusion.

With the 4P switch flipped to the diagram right (IRL the toggle lever will be opposite, I'm referencing how it looks on the diagram) the middle pickup is "hanging from hot" in positions 1 and 5. This isn't a deal-breaker, there are some schemes where it cannot be avoided. But it could potentially generate some extra noise, at least in theory. May not make any real-world difference.

Adding the 330K resistor to the volume pot will also affect the taper of the pot as you turn it down. That's fine, so long as you recognize that it will be different.

me playing around trying to get the setup you wish
but so many colours we go snowblind
[Posistion3 UP will be B+N (with M both sides going to Ground) DOWN M is the only ouput (as it keeps one Ground and the other goes to Output)



I think i got this one right but I SWOPED M and N+B around


mainly because it was bugging me that 4,5,6 Part of the Switch was the same as 10,11,12
Then I had Postion 3 UP and another one UP so swoped around so both the same so i could reuse a Pole of the Toggle Switch
Now means you can use just a Push/Pull if you want

Nice and thank you.  You should add the OOP label to the MxN and MxB.

So many ways to skin a cat. 

The second one of yours achieves the same combos and positions as mine, but without the hanging pickup off of the hot in some positions. It also does it with a DPDT,  vs. a 4PDT, switch, i.e. more elegant. I also like landing the pickups to the OUTS of the super switch as it's cleaner and more flexible for changes. 

I was thinking that the OOP options might be a very useful sounds that cut - old school funk, boogie oogie oogie (thin ratty guitar solo - not my favorite) and Brian May.
