H1. Three positions, outer coil, both in series, inner coil, Megaswitch T
A Megaswitch can also be installed on guitars which feature a single Humbucker (usually on the bridge). Both coils can be switched individually or in series, for example. The Megaswitch T is ideal for this purpose.
If you have a guitar with two tone controls (type "Stratocaster"), then just leave one unused.

H2. Three positions, both parallel, Inner coil, both in series, Megaswitch T
This switching system for guitars with a single Humbucker makes the following possible; parallel switching of both coils, single coil mode and switching in series. The Megaswitch T is ideal for this purpose.
If you have a guitar with two tone controls (type "Stratocaster"), then just leave one unused.
