hey guys. I have to rewire my Squire Strat. But instead of having an 8 terminal switch, it has just : 3 above and 4 below.
Anybody know how wire it, or has a schem.? I can't find anything.
TIA, Andrés
 
If you haven't already removed the pickups, pots, and switches from the pickguard, draw a schematic of where all the wires are coming from and going to, mark each wire with colored tape, or something to identify each individual wire, then put 'em back according to the schematic you drew. Take photos if you have a digital camera, too. Thats IF you haven't taken it apart yet, if you have, try this site-

Did you try http://www.guitarnuts.com/index.php ?
 
hey ez willis. I have the parts, not the wired guitar. Guitarnuts is a great site, but it doesn't mention anything about 7 terminal switches, just that they don't work for doing mods.

thanks for the help guys. I opened the switch and compared it. Usual 8 terminal switch have the middle two soldered together. This switch has just one middle terminal, avoiding the necessity to solder both.
