    P vol with series/parallel coils, bridge vol with humbucker/split, and master tone with P & bridge parallel/series link switching is very doable... maybe even with an optional extra twist.

    The biggest question is: are you willing to snip your P pickup?

    The short link wire between the P coils (standard on most P’s) will need to be cut and extended with wires if you want to do series/parallel switching on it. Like this:

    If so, I’ll sketch out a layout for you.

    Yes I am a fan of the snip.

    I have this push pull series/parallel option on a number of basses. The difference is very noticeable on Seymour Duncan quarter pounder....not so much on Tone Rider Precision Plus pickups. Interested to see how the Chinese pickups go.

    So weirdy...bring on the chop chop chop.

    Thank you again. 😎🎸🎼🎶
