Hello everyone,

I have a double buck corvette that can go from series / parallel with a push pull pot. I don't really use parallel at all so I was wondering how I could change the push pull into going from series (down) to coil tapped (up)? I think I could even wire it to cancel noise if I use the outside buckers, correct?

This is the diagram I am referencing. Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

Here is another diagram that shows he wiring for the MEC humbuckers..

Thanks for the information!

It looks like the DPDT on-on series / north coil & DPDT on-on series / south coil is what I need. Now to just translate it to the Warwick which is:

NORTH START>> RED
NORTH FINISH>> GREEN
SOUTH START>>WHITE
SOUTH FINISH>> BLACK

So the bridge pup should be the south coil and the neck pup the north coil? This would get the outside pups for hum canceling in coil mode?

Here is what I am planning on doing, does this look right? ( sorry for the sloppiness)
