  • Help wiring a DiMarzio HS-3 as a single coil

    I've got a DiMarzio HS-3 pickup which at the moment is wired with a mini switch for coil-splitting. I love its sound when it's coil split (north single coil), but when it's on full "stacked humbucker" mode it sounds weak to my taste. How can I wire it without the mini-switch (straight into the 5-way selector) to have it ONLY on coil-split mode?

    I've heard that Eric Johnson wires his HS-2 this way...

    If you flip the switch left to split it (single mode), then the wire on the right prong is the splitter.
