Hello all!

The wires from the pickups to my PRS rotary switch became detached and a local repairman kindly soldered them back on. The problem is that he has attached them somehow wrongly and it seems like I get the bridge humbucker as normal, and then all the other positions as either split single-coils or wierd and quite weak combinations. I certainly don't have the neck humbucker working as it should. I will solder them correctly myself but I can't quite figure out how! I have made digital pictures of how the guitar is configured at the moment, but I require pictures of how it should look! Can anybody help with a digital picture or two?

Many thanks for any help Rupert

P.S. Guitar is a PRS CE22 with twin humbuckers and rotary 5-way switch.

...

I would like to see this, too. I replaced a pickup on my CE24, and I made a diagram of the switch before I disconnected it. Unfortunately, I have misplaced the diagram. I have the switch re-assembled, but it's not working quite right - the switch itself may be bad, but I'd like to compare it to a picture or schematic.

I wonder if PRS would supply me with one? The sent me a McCarty diagram some time ago.

It depends what kind of switch it is - I got a replacement switch for a CE24 and it had a pcb attached. Check on the PRS forum:
