:bawling: I need some help in the form of a diagram, and maybe have it explained as well. I am putting HFS in the bridge and Vintage in the neck using 1 500k volume pot, 1 tone that is push pull pot, rotory 3way and of corse using a output jack too. The pickups are three wire red,white and black! I want to cut coils out when switch is pulled. I think that I want the screw side coils of the pickup to be the active coil when switch is engaged. I am open to better idea's, but I want to keep it simple. I would really like to know which coil is north and what color wire is that for each coil?
Will I have to switch these from bridge to neck to keep noise down too? meaning if neck start might be black and finish might be white, do, I have to reverse that to keep hum down? As always Thank You in advance for any help!!:D
 
I actually tried that one and it has many problem following it. Not showing the pickups and not giving the north or south, you really cant tell what coils are going to do. I found this to very confussing, I am use to using Duncan diagrams where they draw out everything so you can see it better, at least for me it is. Love PRS pickups and guitars but hard to get wiring diagrams showing the right color codes for wires and having it draw up complete. Thank you though. I thought myself when I saw that one it was Oh there it is. But its also ot a rotory 3way, not sure but that can make a difference or not?
Thanks!! Any others(I need to know about changing north and south for quite running when not in humbucker too.
 
I believe this still works for you. The 3 way isn't rotary, it's just the back of the switch. If you are using the stock HFS/Vintage, the magnet is already flipped. Just follow the wiring for red , white, and black wires and you should be fine.
