Tele wiring with LP toggle

Bob1 · 03-27-2012, 07:29 AM

Hiya, I'm thinking of rewiring a custom guitar I built, that currently has two Lace Sensor single coils (Gold, Light Blue), 1 Vol., 1 Tone and a StewMac blend pot.

I want to remove the Blend pot and add in a LP style three way toggle, all other controls remaining the same, but I'm not familiar with the wiring of this switch with single coil pickups, and trying to transcribe a pure tele diagram to fit in the LP switch is confusing.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

NOTE: Import 3 way toggles and Switchcraft toggles have a slightly different layout. The ground lug and hot lugs are on opposite sides. Here are a few diagrams that may help you understand what you need to do to wire up a 3 way toggle to Tele controls..
