I apologize, but I'm not well versed on how to read those type of schematics.  I'm used to reading the ones from Seymour Duncan and Dimarzio.

don't apologize. i'm not sure if i'm trying to be too precise. i hope i'm not giving you doubts because i'm not sure if we are on the same page. here is a little more of a typical guitar circuit and it represented graphically not schematically. just to keep things clear.

Sir, you are a saint, that is so much easier to understand.  I have a toggle that I replaced the blade with, and I don't use a tone pot at all, just volume+3 way+jack.  So I presume I would just erase the tone pot from this diagram and I'm in business.

Thanks so much for doing this.
 
Awesome, easy shopping list with change for a Big Gulp.
Just 2 resisters: 470k & 51K & about 10 minutes with a solder iron.

Thanks so much for not only your expertise, but your time too. :occasion14:

I greatly appreciate it.

Don't feel bad. Everybody's different. To me, a schematic is the only thing that makes sense. Wiring diagrams leave too much to the imagination. For others, the reverse is true. Depends on what you want to know. Kinda like the difference between the recipe for Lasagne and a picture of it.

yeah like i said it's easier than it looks. the schematic doesn't tell you how simple and modular the layout can be. some people good with diagrams may notice it's not even necessary to use both poles on the switch. but only using 2 lugs per side of the switch makes the smaller switches easier to wire up. i put some thought into which arrangement would have the least compromise.

i was going to do the diagram anyway, but i use linux and to be honest Gimp is not as easy to use for simple stuff as paint is in windows. gimp can do a lot of what photoshop does but the layout is a little strange to me. but when i realized i could get a decent looking diagram on that online tool from digi-key it really wasn't too much trouble.
 
TFS!!! i think i made a mistake... i beleive -10db is 1/10 the power, not voltage. funny thing about ohms law, if you half the volts the current half as well and the power is down to 1/4. i should have taken the square root of the change in power to get the voltage divider ratio...

what that means is what i listed as 3db is actually 6. what i listed as 6 is actually 12db and 10 is 20db. that might be too much, that's like unplugging from your 100watt amp and plugging into a 1watt amp!! lol... for 10 db you would want more like 340k for R1(330k is available) and 230k for R2 (220k is available or you can make 235k with a pair of 470k)... oops.

Thank you Mr. Stark, tell Dr. Banner to ease up on those energy drinks.

i know right! now he has to go back to the store and spend another $3 plus fuel costs and inconvenience and all that...
 
On the plus side, as long as he's out, he can stop by the local titty bar and get some hot wings and a beer or two. Oh, and look at some tits. What could possibly be wrong with that?
 
You know, Cagey, it's that kind of logic that gets whole new guitars built just so you don't end up with an extra strap button lying around in the junk drawer.


Which is to say, I approve heartily.
 
I haven't been shopping yet, prepping for this weekend, wifey will be with me as she loves watching me get my creative muse on.
I've got chicken in the fridge, and some Pyramid Apricot Ale.
The other appendage's are right down the hall, and I have no reason to ever let my eye wander.

It's all good. :headbang:
 
Sooo.... you can still go to the titty bar. She can do some comparison shopping while you get your feed bag on and slake your thirst.

Chicken in the fridge? Breasts, perhaps? Here's an idea. If you've got a meat mallet*, pound the little rascals flat to around 1/2" thick. Fry up some bacon. Set the bacon aside, and keep the delicious smoked pork fat hot. Drop the flattened breasts in the hot fat, about 3 minutes on one side and 2 on the other. Pull those off and drain the fat, but don't wipe the pan. Return the breasts to the pan, put some BBQ sauce on them, lay the bacon on top, then cover with shredded mozzarella cheese. Put the pan under the broiler for a minute or so. Garnish with chopped scallions. Serve with your choice of two sides. I'd suggest buttered rice mixed with sweet peas, and some sort of apple thing. If that don't get you laid, then you may need to shower more often.

*If you don't have a meat mallet, the base of a heavy water glass will work as well.

This, very yes.  Will use the bottom of the measuring cup, nice & heavy, won't break.
 
That'll work as well. You just need something flat and easy to handle that won't break and has some heft to it.

It's called "Chicken Monterrey" in some circles, if you want to look it up. There are variations. I had it once at one of the yuppie chain restaurants - Chilis, Applebees, Fridays... I don't remember. Anyway, it was great and it was easy to see how it was done, so I started making it myself.

Just be careful not to overcook the chicken. Breasts cook surprisingly fast, regardless of what your mother says.

On closer examination, a question comes to mind.  Mind you, I'm omitting the tone pot, so just 2 humbuckers, 1 volume w push/pull, a toggle, and the output jack are being used.

I noticed that you have the positive from the p/u selector toggle going to the switch on the pot.  Normally, as I understand it, it would go to the #1 pin (left lug) on the pot.  So, am I to presume that the resistor #1 (330K) is the jumper that routes the signal from the "up" position (Volume Cut), but when the knob is pressed "down" (Full ) all of these resistors are bypassed?

I'm just trying to understand "how" the routing works is all.
