hi guys,

i love that place here a lot cause its always useful!
now i need your technical advice.
i receive a silo w/piezo soon and i am used to have that toggle on my JP where i can switch on/off/mix the piezo (the switch placed on the upper horn).
is it possible to add such a switch to a silo also (placed maybe on pickguard dont want to route) cause i often need to change between piezo and magnetic output very quick in live situation and i dont want to do that with a footswitch or the potis.

if yes can you help me with a wiring diagram therefore or an explanation.

thanks a lot
keep on rockin'

Yes, there are a few ways you can wire up a toggle to do that. A few months back I did up a wiring diagram for someone. If you PM me next week when I'm back in the office I'll try and dig it up for ya.
