  • 3 way blade switch diagram

    Does anyone have a wiring diagram for a 3 way blade switch with eight terminals in a row?
    2H with 2Volume + 1Tone configuration would be ideal but any info on that bloody switch would be great.
    Thanks

    I don't know about in a row, Ibanez? Here is a site with a lot of diagrams.

      Thanks for the link! They have it for sale:
      Electric guitar switches from Switchcraft, CRL, Fender, Oak Grigsby & more. Lever/blade style switches, toggle switches, mini switches, rotary switches, slide switches.

      It's called 5-Way Import Strat Style Guitar Lever Switch
      5-way lever switch with white tip. Used on many Strat style guitars as well as Ibanez, Jackson, Yamaha and other Japan import guitars. Great for S/S/S H/S/S H/S/H H/H/H pickup configurations.

      Hopefully someone knows how to wire this thing to H/H with 2xvolume and 1xtone :/

      There is no need to explain this



      but I have no idea what am I looking at here:

        Thanks, that did help, along with a translation guide from one type of blade to another.

          mmmm no... On most import switches, the 2 center contacts are the Common, which in those Guitar Electronics diagrams is noted as 0.

          That's what the red and blue dots are showing - which contacts are hot with each switch position. Notice there's always two that are lit up? Those are the Commons, because they've always got a connection in every position.

          This oughta do it:
