Doing Things Wrong

The commonest form of pickup combination is parallel wiring. This is absolutely simple - a two-pole switch [OFF-BOTH-OFF] disconnects either of the pickups from the output. The [OFF-BOTH-OFF] switch is actually kind of a rare thing. You won't find one at the hardware store.

Parallel wiring is easily extended to more pickups, although three is usually the limit.
