ABSTRACT:
A guitar pickup switching system for an electric guitar consisting of three pickups (typically in the bridge, middle, and neck positions). It uses a simple on/off switch for mode control and has two possible user preference options. The first option uses a 5-position pickup selector switch, and allows for all seven possible pickup combinations: the bridge pickup alone, the middle pickup alone, the neck pickup alone, the bridge and middle pickups together (electrically in parallel), the middle and neck pickups together, the neck and bridge pickups together, and finally the bridge, middle, and neck pickups together (all 3 pickups together). The second option has electrical wiring identical to the first, but uses a simpler 3-position pickup selector switch instead of a 5-position switch. This option does not provide for the combination of all three pickups together, but all the other six possible pickup combinations are available.
