So I did a little tinkering with my SE HB II Piezo about 6 or 8 months ago because when the guitar was shipped to me, the PU selector switch was damaged and I replaced it for a partial refund on my purchase. I experimented with different configurations and ended up wiring the 58/15 S for parallel B, N, or both. Since then I ordered a couple 3x3-05 Free-Way Ultra switches to experiment. I'm limiting the project in that NO changes to the body of the guitar will be made, i.e., no new holes for switches.
I read in one post in this forum that you can't replace the tone pot with a push/pull pot because there is not enough room due to the circuit board. While this is 100% true, I thought maybe I would just swap the positions of the Piezo and Tone pots.
So I just sent a message to Free-Way asking this:
"I'm looking at the "HH Parallel Scheme 1V/1T" and the "HH Phase Scheme 1V/1T" using the 3x3-05 Free-Way Ultra. I'm installing in a PRS SE Hollowbody II Piezo. Factory pickups (58/15 S): Bridge PU - North points to the slug, Neck PU - North points to the screws. Is it possible to access the configurations of both schemes if I add push/pull pots for the volume, tone, or both?"
I'll let you know what they say when they get back to me.
