mmmguitar That makes so much more sense. I didn't realize the switch did so much of the heavy lifting, it makes sense that the preamp would just mix incoming signals and constantly send. I learned so much on this little project thanks to you and this site. Hopefully there will be no more snags. You...

@LedZeff, I updated the above post to flaunt my Windows 95 MSPaint skills, and incorporated the wire colors from your photo. Due to the black tubing around the wires outputting from the Powerchip to the jack, I worked with the assumption that they use the red/white/shield scheme. Let me know if any...

@mmmguitar yes I believe it is. I have a picture from when it was open the last time. Thank you!

@LedZeff, you're in good company to have assumed that to be the sensible function of the switch; and there is a mod to achieve what you want: Per the Electronics and Wiring Guides thread , You can replace the mag/mix/piezo switch with a 4PDT on/on/on selector switch (such as the Dimarzio EP1111 or ...

@mmmguitar Just ordered an EP1111 off of ebay, thanks again for the advice. Looking forward to getting this mod done.

That is such a small cost savings for a relatively large downside. Misguided is a very good word to use to describe it, I agree.

A shot in the dark, but my baby has had one dead piezo for a few years I’m trying to fix. I know graphtech sells full sets, but I’m hoping to not go that route.

Thank you @mmmguitar, done.

Hey, any chance you have a piezo saddle for a Nitefly?

That looks to be exactly what I was looking for, thank you! Do you know why this wasn't standard wiring? Also, will this wiring prevent the battery drain while the cord is plugged in with the switch in passive position or not? I coincidentally have this guitar in for a general service, (electronics ...

Ok that makes sense, I misunderstood the function of the switch. Thank you for the explanation. My preamp functions as it should. So it’s normal for the piezo pickups to be the only active ones once the battery runs out? I mistakenly thought that the toggle took the piezo circuit out and purely ran ...

Hello, I have a 2005 NiteFly SA and I love it. The only thing that I wish I could change is for it to have the Stereo/Mono switch found in the older models. Is this something possible to add and wire in? I browsed the wiring diagrams but honestly they are pretty confusing to my basic knowledge of gu...
