3 position double pole double throw w/ audere?

[DTF]

hey I was just wondering if anyone could post a diagram on wiring jazz pups for series/parallel/nothing? I have a 3 position switch instead of 2 and was wondering how to wire it , also can I use this with an audere module pre ? with vol/vol?

I'm assuming this is a master Series/Parallel?
You can use an On/Off/On switch for Series/Mute/Parallel, but an On/On/On switch would go Series/Neck Pickup/Parallel.

sweet ill do that series /neck/paralell , how would i wire it? and would it work fine with an audere their grounding is a little tricky , thanx alot line6man

Is the Audere wiring any different than normal active Jazz wiring?
I seem to recall that Auderes had a dual buffered setup or something with an active blend. Is the preamp already configured for two volumes rather than a master volume/blend setup?

The wiring would be the same as standard Series/Parallel switching.
The neck pickup mode in the center position is a function of the switch itself.

yes its vol/vol but the pup grounds are seperate from the other grounds with the audere systems like grounded and grounding conductors like in a/c line voltage ,at least thats wht it semms like so I can just follow the standard switching? do you have a diagram handy? is it the one like they have posted all over here with a jumper on the last 2 contacts on the switch? last time I did this it was with soapbars with 4 wires coming from the pups so it was easier to understand , thanks

Even if the grounds for the pickups are separate from the ground for the preamp, it shouldn't cause you any trouble.
In parallel, the bass operates normally, but in series, the neck pickup is simply removed from ground and placed in series with the bridge pickup.

The wiring is like this:

thanks alot bro , im embarrassed to say im an electrician, but with all my testers at work Im useless with electronics of this sort, just did a 30000 amp service at the UN and this swich kicked my ass

What gauge wire is used for 30,000 amps?

[DTF]

coming in from the power company it was small it was multiple sets of 350 mcm I believe because the voltage coming from the street was 4200volts, after its stepped down to 480 volts it was multiple sets of 750 mcm 600 mcm and 500 mcm going to various distribution panels tons and tons of cable literally
