    Thanks, Paul --
    Actually, the bridge pickup is a QuadRail (essentially two DualRails side-by-side) and I *am* planning on having series/parallel switching
    between the two DualRails that it consists of. (That's what I meant
    by the "Bridge-Neckmost + Bridge-Bridgemost" combination.) What I'm
    probably NOT going to do is provide series/parallel switching WITHIN a
    single pickup, i.e. between rails. As I understand it, this would
    yield extremely low output (6K ohms DualRail => 3K per rail => 1.5K in parallel). I don't know if the addition of an active midboost/preamp
    would compensate for the extreme differences in output among different
    pickup selections that would result:
    Combo Combo Combo Combo
    Series/ Parallel/ Series/ Parallel/
    5-Way Rail Rail Rail Rail
    Switch PUs Series Series Parallel Parallel
    1 Neck Only 6K 6K 1.5K 1.5K
    2 Neck+Mid 12K 3K 3K 0.75K
    3 Neck+Bridge
    --unsplit 18K 12K 4.5K 2.75K
    Neck+Bridge
    --split 12K 3K 3K 0.75K
    4 Mid+Bridge
    --unsplit 18K 12K 4.5K 2.75K
    Mid+Bridge
    --split 12K 3K 3K 0.75K
    5 Bridge Only
    --unsplit 12K 3K 3K 0.75K
    Bridge Only
    --split 6K 6K 1.5K 1.5K
    My tech tells me that with my DualRail/DualRail/QuadRail pickups,
    phase switching will probably not generate an "interesting enough"
    addition to the palette of tones to justify the additional complexity
    of controls. (In fairness, I should point out that I'm not a huge fan
    of three-position toggles -- I find it a little too hard to hit the
    middle position on the fly.)
    Anyway, I'm a neophyte at this and I'm having to rely pretty heavily
    on input from my tech and all of you folks out there (and I appreciate
    your input IMMENSELY). I would *like* to have a single two-position
    switch for series/parallel switching covering ALL pickup combinations
    and a single two-position switch for splitting the bridge humbucker,
    but my tech is grousing about the difficulty of finding an 8PDT switch
    and the feasibility of even wiring it this way. He's pushing for one
    two-way switch for controlling series parallel for the neck+mid,
    neck+bridge, and mid+bridge combinations (I may have thrown in an
    extra combination there...), and one three-way switch for controlling series/parallel/split within the bridge.
    All I really can be sure of with respect to the wiring and controls is
    that my head is about to explode. Hopefully, I'll get a handle on all
    of this some day... In the meantime, any and all thoughts in this
    regard are welcome!!!
    Thanks again for your feedback, guys.

    One should consider what they want to get from a gym before they pay for a membership. If one likes swimming then they should look for a gym with a pool. If one likes to run then they should look for a gym with a running track. Such important things can
    make big differences to how satisfied one is with their gym and actually go there to work on their fitness.

    A modification to traditional running that can increase fitness is high knee running. It simply involves raising your knees above your waist while running. By doing high knee running, you increase strength in your core muscles by essentially doing a
    standing crunch while running. It's also an extra workout for your thighs.

    Pull those elbows down when you are doing chin-ups! Proper exercise technique can be tremendously enhanced with visualization. When you are completing chin-ups it helps to think in terms of pulling your elbows down rather than pulling your body up! You'
    ll be able to complete more pull ups using better form.
