I took my guitar to a local tech (after reading Beej's instructions!) and he is going to install a push/pull pot for me. I tried to get this done before and the other tech I took it to wanted to replace the stock switch so I declined. The new tech thinks he can do it with the stock switch in place.
So, should I:
1.) Have the tech wire it up so the stock switching is the same when pushed (split in the middle position) and then when pulled have the added split neck and bridge positions as well as the stock split middle position?
OR...
2.) Have the tech wire it up so it is 3 humbucker positions when pushed (both HBs on in the middle position) when pushed and 3 split coil tone positions when pulled (ala the PRS McCarty switching)?
I'm torn between the two types of switching! Both are possible, but one retains the clever stock switching config and the other adds an additional tone option (both HBs on)...
Help me decide! He's going to start wiring it up tomorrow or Tuesday...
