...Also, I thought the Rondo text about coil splitting was a copy paste error from the humbucker version, but pulling the tone pots does something that increases pickup output, which seems opposite of a coil split or tap. I'll have to open it up and check the wiring to see what exactly that is doing. Coil tap wired backwards?
It's a stacked P90, so little hum in any position but really not much to be gained from splitting as the extra magnet/coil is there to eliminate the hum. However, the push/pulls are good for the series thing...

Hmmmm. Still seems weird that the output goes up when pulled. I would have wired it the opposite. If I keep the push pulls, I might use them to change tone cap values or maybe do something crazy like turn on and off an onboard buffer.

What kind of mod is that? Don't be a luddy duddy! Don't be a moon calf! Don't be a jabbernowl! You're not those, are you?" Make it a manly project and install a Veritone switch...
