Our Original Quad coil pickups have occasionally been wired special with 6-conductor cable. While this setup provides some flexibility, it is fairly complex for standard coil switching. We’ve found it better to wire the pickups with 4-conductor cable. The pickup can be rewired in various ways and connected to a 3-way toggle for the same flexibility but with less complexity. This archive diagram is for some old specially wired Original Quad coil pickups with the exposed copper back.
