Hi folks!
Does anybody know something about the Caparison angelus wiring? It's pretty interesting since it uses a 3-way lever switch to have 2 classic choices (position 1 -neck, position 2-bridge) and then a rotary switch to select the sound in the middle position; here's the link:

I've been searching for a while but i couldn't find anything...

Thanks for your help! :thumbsup

I quickly sketched this out, it should work the same. Sorry for the sloppiness and poor hand writing.

The rotary switch just changes the coil tapping wires into the hot, instead of the usual technique of grounding these wires. I use a similar technique on my Celestia UB2 model. I don't know if they reverse the phase on the inner coils when together for hum canceling but it could easily be done.
