I’m in the process of adding a Lace Sensor Dually to the bridge position in my Tele and I’m looking at adding a SPDT switch to select each of the coils individually/together between the volume and tone knobs, like the old Telecaster Plus models.
Before I take it to my local guitar tech, does the wiring diagram from Lace make sense? I’ve seen some people online say that the switch itself needs to be an On/On/On rather than an On/Off/On
Wiring DiagramAlso, does anyone have any advice on which make of switch to use? I’m pretty clueless about electronics.

Pay close attention to the conductors marked with a thin black stripe.
These switches are actually pretty much of a muchness quality-wise.

I'm just getting a tad confused over the wiring of these lace humbuckers. There seems to be no decent diagrams for wiring in this configuration. Any assistance or diagrams be most welcome.
White = coils series link
Black/white = pickup coils ground
Green = permanent screen ground
For coil split wiring, a DPDT on/on switch selects whether white or black/white is connected to ground.
On a twenty four fret HH guitar, it ought to be possible to extract a passable Stratocaster "in between" sound using the inner coils of the humbuckers.
To minimise confusion, I shall say no more for now.
