Can this be 50s wired?

[bsm9981]

I looked in the wiring diagrams and couldn't really find any info on this. I am going to replace the pickups, pots, and cap in my new esp, and want to wire it back 50s style. It only has one volume and one tone, and has the 5 way superswitch in it. Is it possible to wire it 50s style? Here is the way its wired now.

Sure you can convert it over from modern wiring to 50's wiring. The way the capacitor is wired up between the volume and tone pots is what will give you 50's wiring not the switch. You can use this LP Jr. diagram and just connect the output from the switch to the outside of the volume pot where the red arrow is pointing and you'll have 50's wiring. Wire up the pickups and switch as shown in the Seymour Duncan diagram that you posted the link to.

Can anyone tell me if an american made super switch will fit this guitar? The switch thats in seems to function okay, but has a little play in it, thought about replacing it while I'm at it. Maybe recommend where to get a switch.
