Position 1 Neck Pickup + Tone Control.

Position 2 Neck Pickup + Bridge Pickup + Tone Control.

Position 3 Bridge Pickup + Tone Control.
That's how all three of my Teles are wired, one has vintage Schaller humbuckers, one has Blackguard spec single coils and the third has the Tonerider Hot Classics.

Three very different voices and all fun to play.

Should add, the HB Tele has a Wilkinson compensated top strung three saddle hard tail style bridge, the Thinline ( Blackguard pups ) stock Tele three saddle strung through bridge and the Tuff Dog with the Hot Classics has a six saddle strung through Wilkinson bridge
