If you are mixing the EMG Pickup with another type of pickup
and they are “Out of Phase” you can simply reverse the
Red/Black and Green/White connnectors and this will reverse
the phase of the pickup.

The B344 Series/Parallel Control should be thought of as 2 separate components.
The Series/Parallel switching is operated by the up/down motion switching of the pot shaft.
The 500K Potentiometer can be used as a volume or tone for the pickup, or can be used
as a Master Volume or Master Tone Control for the instrument.
It depends on how your instrument is wired.
