This is going to require an enormous amount of restraint.

Is that a 3 position switch? I would assume:
* Bridge (in humbucking mode)
* Neck (single coil)
* middle? is it bridge + neck in parallel? or single with a the hum split in hum canceling mode? hum split with dummy coil in hum canceling mode?
so nice... |

so nice... | The switch was originally wired to select the 4.3 coil combinations. I always used it in what was presumably the series mode, for the fattest sound out of the 4.3. When I replaced the original neck pickup with the quarter pounder I had the switch rewired for individual pickup selection. Bridge only, both, and neck only and the MM4.3 hard wired to be in series. |

Oh well.
To the lucky/smart Canadian, if you decide to sell it shoot me a PM.
Looks like it'll be a nice bass... congrats.
