Title: HSH wiring for Morse project problem, 3way switch replacement
Post by: Jonatan on March 03, 2020, 08:03:38 PM

Hi guys, Ive got problem. Ive got guitar with wiring and "style" inspired by Morse's telecaster but in HSH style, Ive used Cold Sweat + Trilogy Suite + Miracle Man.
It was working perfect till the day 3way switch died...
After replacing switch with new one there is a lot of problem / conflicts that I dont know how to solve.
Old switch was Hosco YM-30, new one is Schaller 3 way switch... but it has only 7 lugs numbered 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

and thats how wiring looks with my little mods (its 2 push-pull, 3 x 3way toggle on/on/on, 3 way lever):

problem is, if I set it to work correctly in position 1 and 2 (bridge and bridge+neck), position 3 is silent (neck), if in position 1 bridge is working and in position 3 neck is working, position 2 is silent.
I dont know whats goin on...

Maybe you have it wired backwards?  With the switch flipped 180 degrees?  I know this can happen with the CRL switch, because I've done it!
