- Output Jack: Output Jack; compatible example (Switchcraft \#11)
- Ground wire from bridge: Ground wire from bridge; generic (Bridge ground wire)

## Specific to this wiring

- The source title uses ppPH, but the drawn volume push/pull shunts the neck Tele stack red lead for a power-boost (coil-cut) effect, not a phase reversal.
- Bridge and neck Tele stacks use the generic four-conductor Seymour Duncan stand-in; red and white stay taped together on the bridge stack.

## What each position does

- Neck: Neck Tele stack (both coils). Source: Engine reading of the transcribed board.
- Neck (pull, power boost): Neck Tele stack (split to one coil). Source: Pull shunts the neck stack series link for the drawn power-boost effect.
- Neck + bridge: Neck Tele stack (both coils) and Bridge Tele stack (both coils) in parallel. Source: Engine reading of the transcribed board.
- Neck + bridge (volume pulled): Neck Tele stack (split to one coil) and Bridge Tele stack (split to one coil) in parallel. Source: Engine reading with the volume pulled; the bridge stack also reads split here.
- Bridge: Bridge Tele stack (both coils). Source: Engine reading of the transcribed board.
- Bridge (volume pulled): Bridge Tele stack (split to one coil). Source: Engine reading with the volume pulled.

- Tele stack pickups are stand-ins: generic four-conductor humbuckers; stacked construction is not modelled beyond series coils.
