Hey guys....I really suck at figuring out alternate pickup wiring. I've got a two humbucker, 1 vol, 1, tone, with a 3-way three post toggle. I would like to wire it 1st pos (down)-bridge p/u, 2nd pos (middle)- neck (full), and 3rd pos (up)- single coil neck. Can anyone draw up a diagram that knows what their doing? They are Dimarzio 4-wire pickups...I'd really.....REALLY appreciate any help here...
 
You can't do something like that if you're talking about a Gibson style 3 way switch. The center position simply connects both at the same time.

You don't want to use a push-pull pot or something like that?
 
Well, I hadn't planned on using a push/pull. Running the neck (single) was merely just an idea. I'm not dead set on it or anything. I really only use the bridge (full) and the neck (full). Rarely do I use any other positions on the 5-way I have now. If anything could I use the center position as dead or sort of like a kill switch?
