I have a quick question about 3-way pickup selector switches. Are they usually ON-OFF-ON?
I'm playing around in my head with an idea for when I finally get together enough cash to build it. It's a Mustang or Jagstang built with Seymour Duncan P-Rails. If I can use one of the ON-OFF-ON slide switches for the pickup selector, I can use the other one to select inner coils/humbucker/outer coils as per a diagram I saw on Guitar Electronics.com. I figure that would be a very versatile little guitar with easily understood controls that I could give to my daughter when she is old enough. The problem is that I can't find a diagram that shows how a 3-way selector works. I'd think that it would simply be a case of using a slide switch to short one pickup or the other to ground to get a the other pickup by itself, but I'd like to double check that.
