I'm currently building a solidbody with 2 Lace Sensor Duallys. I'm using 2 3-way miniswitches to split or combine each pickup and a tele 3way to switch between pickups. I've built several tele/LP type guitars using standard wiring diagrams but this is my first custom wiring job and it's quite challenging. I'm using 1 volume and 1 TBX tone control. There aren't very clear diagrams for the TBX, even the Fender diagram that came with it are blurry and hard to read.
I'm not asking for someone to tell me how to do this job, I'm looking for a resource, (book, website) that can help me make sense of all of this. I've wired it up like I thought it should be and there is no hum but there is not much output, you have to listen hard to hear the pickups.
Thanks for any info you might have
Cheers

Thanks, I've looked at it and continue to look at it. They don't have the setup I'm using but I have used it in the past. The problem is that I don't really know what I'm doing. I might have to take an electronics class at the local college. The TBX and mini 3-ways, I think, are the problem. I'll eventually figure it out.
