EGEN Wiring - Anybody Figure It Out?

I saw the wiring selection for the EGEN and I wondered if anyone knows how to wire an HSH for the same options. (I'm hoping you've already figured it out Vim)

Re: EGEN Wiring - Anybody Figure It Out?

Seems to be similar (emphasis here) to what Vim suggested to me in my Wiring Help HHH thread.

I haven't tried it out yet.

Re: EGEN Wiring - Anybody Figure It Out?

Actually I hadn't reallised the egen had a unique wiring scheme, Actually looking at it it's almost the same as a couple of designs I had for my jem...

this had a mode push pull to select either the single coil or both humbuckers in position 3 and a coil tap push pull to tap the humbuckers in different positions.
I'll draw up a schematic for the egen over lunch (uk time) and post it after.

Re: EGEN Wiring - Anybody Figure It Out?

Ok this is the best so far.....

Using 2 push pull pots, one for neck + bridge OR middle in position 3, and the other for the coil taps!!
Still not exactly as Ibanez state for the Egen.
