burchster Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Toggle switch: up=neck pu Middle=both Down=Bridge pu Top knobs volume and tone for neck pu Bottom knobs volume and tone for bridge Pretty much universal except for 3 pu guitars like the Riviera p3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboywww Posted January 7, 2015 Author Share Posted January 7, 2015 Thank you both, most helpful. Think I might have an issue as with the toggle switch in the up position I get nothing. Del Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joevacc Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Thank you both, most helpful. Think I might have an issue as with the toggle switch in the up position I get nothing. Del Remember if either of the volume controls is down all the way there will be no sound from either pickup regardless of the switch position. jv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delboywww Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 Thank you Joe, now that I know what each control does I will check it over again. Del Checked over again and all is fine. The neck vol control needed to be turned up more than the bridge volume. However if the neck pickup volume control is fully off the bridge pickup still works. Maybe the wiring varied on some models? Anyway I appreciate the helpful replies. Many Thanks Del Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many Thanks Del If your toggle is in the middle (neck / bridge) then either volume control at 0 will mute both pickups. If your toggle is in the middle and each pickup has independent volume wiring, then the volume knob will only correspond to its respective pickup without muting the entire guitar. If the neck pickup volume is at 0, your guitar will only work in the bridge toggle position and vice versa. I think your guitar has standard wiring.
