My custom 3-way switch sounds (videos!)

So I was messin' around today, I like the way the middle position sounds. The Blazes are great pickups. A couple of vids~

Awesome guitar! Sounds pretty good aside from the video quality. What's custom about the 3-way switch?

Well it's not really custom aside from being different from a 5-way. It was wired like Petrucci's 3-way, that's all. I was really amazed though how I could get a Strat sound from the middle position. Really cool. Thanks guys!

A H-H wired three way with a push/pull coil tap on the tone is my favorite configuration, far and away.

Honestly, I should've held on to the white Schecter C-1 Elite. I got some awesome tones out of that. It'd be nice to have the push/pull coil tap on this though.
