    Default Need help (wiring hum on miniswitch)

    I would like to wire a SH8 on an ON ON ON miniswitch.
    Required functions are No signal / Series / coil tap (it is a Cort performer HSS configuration with 2 ON-ON miniswitches for the singles and 1 ON-ON-ON for the hum [no selector switch]).
    Can't find any wiring diagram in accordance with this configuration.
    It will be really appreciated if someone here could give me a help

    Ok, thanks. But mine is a ON-ON-ON with six terminal lugs. On your sketch it is a ON/OFF/ON with three terminal lugs.
    I made this on mine and the NO SIGNAL / HUM works correctly but the SINGLE function not (both coils works together and the sound is very thin and weak)

    have you tried just looking around at some pickup company's websites to dig through some schematics? I often cobble together a few of the best parts from a few schematics when I can't find exactly what I want.

    You're right. But I just want to save time in the way I know there are lot of knowledge here. The problem is solved from now. I'd just forgot to solder the green wire because it was cut and hide by the insulation material.

    no problem with saving time, but if there's any knowledge here it's from guys that have already done what has been suggested. it's totally worth the time to do the leg-work and learn all you can about as much as you can about a guitar. the better you know your instrument, the better you will know what it's capable of doing. in the process, you may very well find a schematic that would even be more suitable for what you're wanting to do. I've been working on my own guitars for over 25 years and am still learning new stuff and am no where near knowing it all.
