Share This Thread Ibanez RG560 & INF 3 wiring help. PLEASE HELP Michael Laurance (2261) Building/Repair Forum 10/27/2009 8:40:59 AM · 155 Views [Respond to this Message] I'm putting together an RG just for stage use. I have an old RG560 pup in the bridge, and an INF3 in the neck. The 560 has 2 leads and a ground, the INF3 has 4 leads and a ground. I'm using the standard square 3-way switch w/8 terminals. Can someone tell me what goes where?

For some reason I've always had trouble registering on jemsite. It's a shame, because I own the real Jem, the original 777 in loch ness green. It was limited to 777 built, mine is #126. Anyhow, my suspicions are that it follows DiMarzio configurations.

Why does that thing have 8 terminals for 3 positions? A 5 way switch has 8 terminals!! We can dig at the Jemsite.. or you could perhaps open up a Jem and snap some photos.

Eventually, I'll start using the better Strat-type switches. Usually it's like this: 1- neck hot 2- mid hot 3- bridge hot 4- to switch 5- open 6- neck- 7- mid- 8- bridge- I'm going to assume I should wire it just like this, leaving 2&7 open. I'll let you know how it works out.
