your selector switch looks like this one. the lead soldered to the switch is the output. solder the grounds of the humbuckers to the same lug the output shield is soldered to. then solder the hot lead from one pickup to the left side lug and the other to the right side. selector switch should now give both in centre position and left or right will select one or the other of the pickups.doesnt really matter which is soldered to which lug. what will matter is the way you mount the switch.. just spin it 180 if you get neck when you thought you were picking bridge..lol
