you can't get the two-humbucker coil combinations shown in the 7520 or 7321 wiring dragrams from a standard 5-way like the one in your RG4. you either need this custom Ibanez switch or a 24-pole superswitch and lots of wire jumpers.

i really don't see how that standart 5 way switch that ibanez uses for most of their models is diffferent from what Xan has.
if you open Xan's switch and an ibby standard one you will see it is double switch it has 1,2,3,4 that get connected and 5,6,7,8 that get connected but they are not connected between them selfs. standard. and its very possible to do with it 2 humbuckers its much trickier to get rid of hum if you would also add single coil this why they have this ibby special or the fender style switches.
what Jem, and fender style switch has is 24 pins basicle 4 individual systems controlled by 1 trigger. its like 2 standard 5 way switches in one.
it is possible to connect 2 humbuckers on standart 8 pinns switch
if you notice on any other ibby rg diagram it has 3 wires from pickup
one bare one white one red i think white is the end of north pole and red is coils tap
and the beginning of the south pol is weired inside the pup to the shielding wire.
(Scott, i am just explaining to those who didn't/ don't know that)
what that means is that instead of letting you the option of playing with possible configurations they have limited you with humbucker or single coil options.
look at the rg1527 diagram 2 humbuckers with the same effect as the rg7321 has and much easier on 8 pins diagram.
another thing, Xan, why you say js1000 was very close to your old configuration it is very different from all the other diagrams we are discussing.
