Howdy folks!
I'm trying to repair the electronics of an old Supro D6 (double neck, with string thru pickups). It happened a moron tried a fancy custom wiring and actually screwed it up.
The outer neck control is supposed to be a neck selector switch (in my case it's been replaced by a pot and a strange array of capacitors).
I have no idea what type of rotary switch should I get, how to wire it, if the 2 pickups combination is series or parallel etc...
Maybe a good soul on the forum could take a picture / draw a schematic of the guts of his/her beloved Supro D6???
I'm especially interested in that rotary switch (as the other controls work fine).
Thanks! |

I've just stumbled on John Ely's website, which shows several classic steel guitars wiring diagrams.
Among them is a 50' National D8, which (just a guess) may be close to the Supro. The National's neck selector switch is actually a simple 1P3T switch, selecting the front neck / no neck (no sound) / back neck (contrary to a Fender Dual, which is front neck / both neck parallel / back neck).
Do you have a sound when the neck selector switch of your Supro is in the middle position???
Thanks again! |

| The middle position on a Supro D6 selector switch is both necks ON. |
