I'm not a complete newbie, but I too am confused.

I'm confused because we, the reader's, weren't given a diagram of any sort, and not given a position-by-position break-down of all the pickup combinations, in a form that didn't leave me reading the same paragraph three times.

Perhaps it's a valid mod, but the writer just made it too difficult for me to evaluate it. Then again, I do get easily confused with wiring mods when written-up in text only form.

Perhaps if you pay this fellow the buck and a half, he gives you a decent diagram?

So I got curious about finding a decent diagram and description for this mod.

THere's this:

Personally, I'm not crazy about this mod. I just don't like redundant switch positions. It just seems wrong to me. Like I said, it's my hang-up.

Now if you really want to have some fun with single-coil pickup combos, go for the Dan Armstrong Super Strat wiring:
