Hi guys, I used Super switch on my HH Strat for this configuration

1) Bridge HB only (coils in series)
2) Inside coils (electrically in phase, in parallel) "Stratty" sound
3) Bridge HB + Neck HB
4) Neck HB only (coils in parallel)
5) Neck HB only (coils in series)

I used this schematics:
http://www.dimarzio.com/sites/default/f ... 1112rg.pdf since EP1112 is DiMarzio's take on Super switch.

It gives me ok signal, but I am confused. Because, when I switch to bridge HB only position and when I tap neck pickup with a screwdriver I can still hear it on my amp even tho neck pickup is not engaged on the super switch (I mean that tap). Is that normal, and if not what have I done wrong? a Grounding issue perhaps or what?

Cheers

You should not ear a sound from neck PU when in brige PU position . Check your wiring , sure you have a mistake.
Sketch is not easy to read

Howdy & Welcome!

Can't really help without seeing the issue. Please post a clear and in focus pic of your wiring.

Thanks

Andy
