I have a Jimi Hendrix Tribute Strat that came equipped with a 3-way selector switch. I have attempted to install a 5-way selector switch and have run into a snag.

I've wired the new switch just like the diagrams show, but I only get sound from the neck pickup. I have volume control on the neck pickup, but no tone control. I've poked, prodded and re-wired from scratch several times without luck.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Peace,

This is the wiring diagram of a 5-way Megaswitch :

Hope it helps!
