Statocaster selector mod


Hello. Can anyone help me?

I'd like to rewire my strat copy to allow me to access more pickup combinations. My idea is to wire 5 combinations of the bridge and neck pickups with the normal 5-way switch, and then use a 3-way switch to flip between the neck and the other two pickups.

So the 5 way would offer the follow:
1. bridge
2. bridge and middle in parallel
3. middle
4. bridge and middle in series
5. bridge and middle in series reverse phase

This switch would then be sent to the new three-way selector.

The 3-way selector would choose between:
1. Neck
2. Neck and 5-way
3. Just 5-way

Does anyone know how I would do this? I think I can manage the 3-way, but don’t know how to wire the 5-way?

Thanks people.

I wouldn't go with a 5-way AND 3-way. Just pick up a Megaswitch, and you'll be able to wire any combos you could imagine.
