Strat wiring diagram wanted

[cokekolev]

Hi, I'm looking for the following wiring diagram:

-3 single coil sized humbuckers
-1 volume
-no tone
-1 push-pull pot only used for splitting (not the same as the volume pot)
-import switch

when the push-pull pot is down, the humbuckers will be in full mode, when up they will be split. When split, pos. 2 & 4 are hum-cancelling.

Who can help me? Can't find the exact diagram on the duncan site. It's really confusing. Who can help? Thanx.

a push pull only has two poles
I dont think you can split three pickups with just two poles

if you dont have a tone
can you fill the hole with a three way four pole switch?

that may allow you to do what you want

which I assume would be have
standard strat in one position and
humbucking strat in the other

or I could be wrong

that's the diagram i'm using now, except i use no tone ans the push-pull pot is separate from the volume pot
And i'm trying to translate the switch one this page: http://www.premierguitar.com/Magazin..._Part_III.aspx

i'm also using pickups with different color codes (gfs and some chinese hot rails clone off ebay) which makes it even more confusing.
But we'll get there eventually.

ya know I dont wanna sound rude
but that link has several switches on it
which one, exactly, is yours

and the part about your pickup color codes being different
please define "some chinese hot rails clone"


do you have a meter with which we can test your
switch and pickups

Look at that. SD have a diagram for that wiring, but not a Les Paul style HHH with 3 volume, 1 tone, and 4 connector cables on the the pups? Good thing Guitar Electronics did.

Just leave off the terminal connection from tone to volume
and Imagine the PP on the tone instead

you will have to describe the import switch a bit more
sose we can translate it to whats in the diagram

a photo wouldnt hurt either

My switch would be what they call the "Far East 5-way Switch" I guess.
The chinese hot rails is exactly what it is, a cheap clone off ebay, that's all the information I have. It's this one: http://www.benl.ebay.be/itm/DUAL-HOT...item4166574c9c
Except the wire colors are different from the picture, but I figured those out.
The other two rails are gfs lil killers. I've got the wiring codes for those.
Okay, I wired up everything and it's all fine, except the neck and bridge pickup are only split in combination with the middle pickup. What could be wrong?

Here's some pics:










Not really clear, but I hope this helps.

Thats how that switch works
Look top left above switch

Heres how
The ground link from the switchs split poles common
To the pp
Makes that ground active only when the pp is active

[ehdwuld]

If you want them to work independantly then you need
Three on-off switches
Or pp
Etc

I'll try with two switches, one for the middle pickup and one for the bridge and neck, based on the HSH diagram with one vol and push-pull.

If you follow that diagram correctly, they will work independently, up to a point. When you pull the push-pull switch, all pickups will be split, in every position. However, you can't have, say, the neck and middle both on with only one of them split. But, each is usable split, when selected by itself.

Here's the diagram translated to your switch:

Thanx a lot! I tried it this way last night, at least I think I did, but it didn't work. Now I wired it with two push-pull pots which will give me even more tonal options. I will try your schedule definately too!
