    Default Simple diagram for series switching on a strat? Help?

    Greetings!

    let me preface this by saying I can't read electrical schematics, and though I 've done my browsing, I haven't come up on something I CAN understand... yet.

    Most I've done is wire up my own strat pickups the standard way and then added the blender pot mod.

    I would just like to be able to throw a switch that will allow me to go from parallel to series mode on the N+M and M+B and N+B combinations, while retaining what the standard 5-way switch and blender pot currently do. Furthermore, what would happen in series mode if the blender pot & 5-way sw are set to N+M+B?

    Pls. note that push-pull pots are not available here, and so I would like to try the series mod with a DPDT (or whatever you folks suggest as most appropriate) before sending for push-pull pots from overseas.

    Can anyone point me to a diagram that will let me do the above, pls?

    While I love how my SD Antiquity set sounds, I would like to try this experiment on another strat which has Fender 57/62's in the neck and middle, and an SD APS-I in the bridge spot.

    Thank you in advance for your inputs and help!

    Jaime G.

    p.s. if the desired series mod requires that I have one RW/RP pup, then I shall substitute as needed.

    I have gone through the mods on guitar-mod.com and actually love using the simplified blender pot mod from there, but since I know nothing about electronics, I don't know how to go about substituting the blender mod for the neck-on switch which is combined with the series switch mods on the same site...
