HI. I want to do the 7 sound mod on my SSS fender strat, and I want to use an S1 switch as the on/off for the neck pickup. What I want is:

S1 up/off
1- bridge
2- bridge + Middle
3- Middle
4- Middle + Neck
5- Neck

S1 down/on
1- bridge + neck
2- bridge + Middle + neck
3- Middle + neck
4- Middle + Neck
5- Neck

I am also adding the grease bucket mod to the tone pots.

Can anyone tell me where I can find a wiring diagram to help me out with this????
Thanks!

If you engage all the pickups together you'll get a nice humbucker sound.

Welcome.

Your objective is quite simple. If you look at the bottom of the S-1 switch, you'll see how it works:

As you can see, there are four sections (left, right, up and down), grouped in three terminals each. We'll use the top three. Solder a wire from the neck pickup's terminal on the pickup selector switch to the top middle terminal on the S-1. Next, solder a wire from the top left terminal on the S-1 to the terminal on the volume pot (the left one as you are looking at the pot from the bottom) where the wire from the pickup selector switch is soldered to. That's it!
