Making some progress and sounds like your choice of PUP's will really make the 12 stringer sing.
Those Bill Lawrence's and all those wiring combinations......can't wait to hear that.

Wiring Loom 99% done, ran out of thick heat shrink to join the 3 wires up together with, or lost what i have left, just need to wire the switch and this is good to go.
I might put a pair of treble bleeds on this 471k cap and a 220k resistor, but for the moment thats enough.
Hi Tony, I have bought an upgraded 3 way switch just likes yours in these shots and wondered how do you wire it up as I have not been able to find any wiring guides on them anywhere?
Cheers, Waz.
Waz, try this (link A0 & B0 as your output, and pickups connect to A1 and B1).
Scott.
Thanks Scott.
Heres a Schematic Waz that pretty well explains it.
Where the 3 lugs are the center lug is where you earth the braid or your earth wires depends what your wiring, you maybe wiring 2 strands on +- but the earth go in the middle.
Left side of the switch you wire the bridge PUP lead right side the Neck pickup and around the back to the single you wire the + for the socket and i am using braid so i earth to the pot with the other 2 wires.
If you need any help i will wire my switch for you tomorrow and you can see how its done.
Or drop me a pm i will try and explain it better, just had my computer knocked out and tooke me ages to repair so i am not on the ball at the moment
Cheers mate, that diagram and commentary will do just fine.
Now worries mate
Well thinking i had the earth covered i had put the bushings in, no worries, then i was to discover a few weeks later that this guitar was different, and my plan wouldnt work, no more assumptions for me, well until next time.
Remove bushing, i put a screw down the hole the would the stud back in, out it come. I will make a jig for this so that if someone drops a guitar in for a bushing removal i am on top of it, hey 99% of the time i work on Fender or the likes
I dropped the screw down the hole thread end up so it had more surface on the bottom.
Popped straight out, theres the hole in the treble side of the rear hole dang nabbit
Ran an earth from inside the hole then faced the bare wire down, now we are winning
All done
A big thanks to FredA, whom if it wasnt for stuffing up his own guita,r i would still be thinking i am home and hosed, thats until i went to wire it.
