I lied, it's actually really straightforward. But I still say it's a bad idea.

You could do that with a 3-way lever switch and an on/on/on mini toggle to see if you like the functionality before you start carving big holes. I suspect you'll need to do some body cavity work* to get a second lever switch to fit.

*Not the sort of body cavity work they do at airport customs checks, that's entirely different.


As you have drawn it, you would have to operate both switches simultaneously to get the neck/middle and middle/bridge combinations. That is not what the OP asked for.

Yes, but it's as close as you're going to get from me :)

Truth is the easiest way to do something similar is with a 3-way lever switch and a DPDT toggle to add in the extra pickup. Two 3-way levers is just ridiculous.

Which your drawing ably illustrates. :wink: :D
