  • Pickup swap

    Drug out my 92 Dinky XL and put in a DiMarzio PAF and 2 non stacked DiMarzio singles.Great tone but still have a vol drop with the middle pickup when in the 2 position on the 5 way.
    I wired it wide open and coil tapped with the south coil of the PAF and cured part of the vol drop problem.
    I have used this combination before with no vol drop in the 2 position(bridge and middle) but I can't find my schematic and there is nothing at guitarelectronics.com that cures the problem I guess the humbucker is sucking power from the single coil.
    I'm trying not to use a stacked single because I want to keep the clean single coil sound.Any Ideas on the wiring?
    Really? well screw Mark Twain.

    wire the middle pickup in reverse or the bridge pickup. The polarity is wrong.
