Wiring this three way switch

[McCreed]

I'm inclined to get a proper telecaster three way switch, given that I can get a genuine Fender one from a reputable dealer for just under AUD$30.

Johnny, just double check the depth of your control cavity route and be sure you'll have enough clearance for a CRL-type switch.
Especially if you plan on shielding the cavities.

I don't recall the cavity depth on the PBG TL's nor whether I had to route mine deeper. My point is some non-fender bodies are a bit shallower than genuine and solder lugs on the switch can make contact with the cavity floor and cause a short (if shielded).
IIRC, you need a minimum of 35mm, but check that against the switch you buying.

Good pick up (pardon the pun) - I didn't think of that. Cheers, McCreed.
