    Default P-Rails P90/Rail Wiring Help

    I have a G&L ASAT Bluesboy and would like to replace the neck Seth Lover with a P-Rail. I'd like to replace the tone control with a push/pull pot that would give the P90 in the down position and just the rail in the up position. Is this possible? Thanks.

    For this all you would have to do would be to solder the red and white wires together and connect them to the middle lug of the switch. Then connect the top lug to ground and the bottom lug the hot signal. You don't need the other side of the switch.

    Thank you - I hope to have time for this project next week.

    Finally getting time to think about this again. Before going throught the work of replacing the existing pot with a push/pull I'd like to first wire it to the existing pot as a P90 only. Any advice on this?

    I have a flying V with 1V - 2T and 3 way switch [standard]. I'm switching to P-Rails and want to incorporate 2 mini toggles to get the max tone out of the pickups. Anyone have a schematic they could send me? I would greatly - greatly appreciate it. Also wrote to Seymour to see if they could whip something up as well.
