No name guitarvwith fantastic action. I've got a proper table, endoscope, and all the luthier & electronic tools, etc one could use. I just dont have a schematic for a HB-SC-3way slider with 2 each volume and 2 each tone controls. Ive replaced the busted up selector and wired it the same way as thebold and still have no front pick (single coil).
Spent so much time searching for a schematic and no luck so if someone has one pls forward. Thank you!

Guitar has 1 HB, 1 single, 2 volume, 2 tone.

Someone else wired it (I just bought it) and someone replaced everything but the 1960s 3 way switch which is a bunch of pieces held together by tape.

I have no access panels and have to work through F holes or cut it all out and

All help is appreciated

Probably want to keep it simple: Tape for a 3-way switch isn't exactly
a good design concept. There's generally a threaded shaft, top nut
and washer to secure the assembly, wherein the switch's contacts rock
from out of a inner-shaft mounting (not a sliding and open elongated
Fender design, likely to require the switch, if not missing switch
parts tape may indicate, be suitably sized for a replacement or
altogether an integral working unit).

A table with lighting and possible makeshift tools, to an extent you
have to fit them for working through the F-Holes where hands can't
immediately reach;- a small telescopic mirror and a small bright LED
to see, indirectly reflecting light off the mirror if to obscurer
reaches of the cavity inside.

The higher likelihood, is its design is not intentionally so made to
"cut it all out", provisionally, then for the face of a guitar
pre-assembled from electronics mounted behind, or intended to be
inaccessible once that portion it's mounted and glued to the rest of
the body.

Meaning, patience and thinking it out when putting the guitar on a
table for inspecting it closely for indications and a method of
assembly -- a logic to finally securing electronics to a wooden base
intended to receive them. A certain approach would of course be a
hopeful possibility, as one might no less to think to care first for
covering the table with protective cloth to avoid gouges or scratches
to the guitar's finish before continuing.

It sounds like there are more than a few modifications to whatever this
guitar is, so more info would help to make some suggestions.

What make and model is this guitar?

Many semi & hollow-body guitars are wired by pulling the controls,
switches and jack out through one of the f-holes. Pickup wiring would
have to be unsoldered to free up the controls, but I'd hold off on that
until you know what you have. So, that is where you'd start to get a
handle on what you have and make necessary revisions.

I should mention I built guitars about 4 decades ago which is why I've got tools, etc and also why I have forgotten more than I remember. Somewhere in the
40byears I've lost all mybbooks and such as I'd given up working on them for playing them. Just
need a pic

There's a continuity problem with the single PU. It's no less a
duplicate circuit, for that purpose, split from the selector with the single-coil existing its own tone pots. An open electrical condition
will need be isolated within the single-coils own circuit path:

a) does the selector hold electrical continuity and pass a signal
without an open from the single-coil selection.

b)...is that PU itself functional and have a signal to amplify (can
you hear a screwdriver tap occur when it touches against the coils)?

c) is the PU signal finally getting through as passed through both to resistor volume and tone pots and their supportive
capacitors/resistors?

[d: amplifier output jack should be common to a working humbucker and irrelevant or in working condition to both PUs.]

One of three, then, [a-c] are the possible sub-stages where, in that particular circuit Single-Coil stage, an OPEN condition exists in
wiring or a supportive component.

Multimeter is needed. Nice extras are a meter with an audible feedback continuity checker, and a tiny $10 shoebox "practice" amp from a
pawnshop is easier deal with while working to fit under, aside or
beside whatall else is regardless going on on the worktable.

and then the rain came and the ark began to float

Those slider switches often add a capacitor to the circuit. Adding a capacitor will cut higher frequency and appear to boost the lower end.

It is best to simply draw out what the wiring circuit is instead of
trying to find a matching one on line.

Then again, you may wish to replace the existing circuit
with the world-famous NoName SCR circuit which can step
down 220VAC to 110VAC for use with audio equipment. I'm
sure Mr. NoName will be more than glad to provide you with
a copy of the schematic, since he was able to find it on
Google in less than 5 minutes. Of course, you may wish to
take anything he tells you with a grain of salt, since he's
one of the most electronically ignorant posers on the Net;
he can't tell a phase-inverter from a fire hydrant, or a
B-flat from a beer can. If you do *anything* he tells you
to do, the result is likely to be smoke.

Not necessarily. Another likely result of listening to NoName is
that you will end up sitting on a cloud next to Keith Relf, asking
him "what happened?"
