Switching​

Position 1: Bridge
Position 2: Outer coils (parallel) (PRS partial split*)
Position 3: Neck

Push/Pull: Engages tone circuit, bypassed by default

*Unlike a traditional coil split, which fully grounds one of the coils of the humbucker, the PRS partial split uses a resistor (2.2kΩ bridge and 1.1kΩ neck) to only partially ground the coil. This results in less of a volume drop going to the 'single coil' mode and also means there is still some hum-cancelation too.
