Wiring diagram foar Invader on an Ibanez S320

[Orochimaru]

I just look for the right diagram for installing a Duncan Seymour Invader in the bridge of my Ibanez S320. I had a look upon the diagrams on the Seymour Duncan web site, unfortunately I couldn't find out which one is the right one for me.

I know there are many types of 5 way switch so I couldn't make it sure which one is the right diagram for me.

Please help me. I am desperate to install this pickup. I already have it for one month and couldn't install it yet.

Maybe I am an idiot but I need some arrows to point the kitchen for me.

Thank You.

No one has an idea about how to connect that Invader in the bridge of my Ibanez S320?

[Orochimaru]

I'll never buy a Seymour Duncan because the diagrams for wiring them on Ibanez guitars like mine are so hard to find.

I did a big mistake when I bought Seymour Duncan pups.

Wow, you know, unless we know what type of 5-way switch you have, we can't help you. There's no need to get upset with Duncan for something that's your fault.

What does the switch do in position 2/3/4? I would imagine 1/5 would be full humbucker. If we know what the switch does in each position we can guess what goes where. Buying a Duncan is no more a mistake than buying a Dimarzio. It's not like one is made for your guitar and not the other.

[DrNewcenstein]

I'm going out on a limb here and say he already removed the old pickup and didn't write down where the wires were connected, and/or can't compare the Ibenhad and Duncan diagrams to figure out what colors get swapped out.

[idsnowdog]

Here's my guess based on the original diagram translated to SD colors. If this doesn't work you may need a new switch. If you get a new switch you can decide what you want the positions to do rather than use Ibby's options http://www.guitarelectronics.com/cat...ckup_diagrams/.

Thanks. I wired it according to a DiMarzio diagram and only one coil was working in the Duncan. I was very very upset.

This diagram made it clear for me. The red from DiMarzio fits the black from Duncan and vice-versa. Now it works very nice. I love it.

Thank You very much.

I was very upset because I had it for 1 month and I couldn't find the diagrams.

Thank you.

It works correctly in all positions then?

[Orochimaru]

It works correctly in all positions then?

Absolutely.

It works flawless now. All the coils works exactly as they are supposed to.

The diagram you posted in this thread was abtolutely helpfull.

I'm happy now.

Thank you once more.

I install another Invader in a Ibanez RG70DX in the bridge and need another diagram.

Two identical diagrams from different perspectives.

Thanks once more isnowdog. If we ever meet I owe you a drink or more.

Need help for this s320 wiring also, but I can't find Isnogoods diagrams?

Anyways, I tried to install DiMarzio instead of Ibanez stock INF2 in the bridge, and I'm not sure if I got the colors right:

INF2:

south start -blue
south finish - white
north start - red
north finish - black

So that conversion code would be:

INF2>DiMarzio

blue > green
white > white
black > black
red > red

Does anyone know how that 5-way, 8-pin Ibanez switch operates. Problem is that s320 has quite unusual wiring combination, and I can't work it out from the guitar itself. Which pins are out, and which are short circuited at the certain positions of the lever?

[ehdwuld]

yea
which one you got
this one mind the numbers on the back

does this


or this one

does this
mind the numbers

[cronnin]

Nice Thanx for the extremely quick reply. Those diagrams are just everything I needed. It's mucho late here, so I'll probably experiment with the sound tomorrow, and hope to get even more entertainment when I get a good neck pickup in a month or two

[ehdwuld]

you can also take a multimeter to test yours yourself

they are divided left and right like the strat switches

[cronnin]

Mine is like this. Output Hot- goes to volume pot.
Set of INF pickups in S320.

neck - red is grounded
bridge - blue is grounded

p.s. I know I could do it with multimeter, but I was kinda hoping to get the diagram (that you posted, thankfully) , so that I should not have to dig out all the electronic from the cavity

[ehdwuld]

ya aint gotta dig em out

the meter leads should reach in

I did mine while still attached as in the first pick
whilst I changed pickups

well I did have the pickups off at the time

meter to ohms

put switch all the way in one direction

lead on left most terminal
test to 7 terminals to the right - take notes
lead on second from left most terminal
test to 6 terminals to the right - take notes
etc

switch to next position
repeat

make nice clear drawing
post on favorite forum

EDIT
the first drawing was from my RG2EX1
two hums + 5 way switch
it had the V7 & V8 pickups
slightly different from the INFs

EDIT of EDIT
yea looks like yours was set up like mine

neck
neck in parallel
both
bridge split
bridge

same jumper and all

terminal 5 from left
mine had combined these two in the sheath of wire and only brought the one white down

[ehdwuld]

the left 4 terminals are your pickup hot selections
and the right is the coils split/parallel connections
