Prs custom 24 wiring

What's Hot
Hi there, I am looking to change the pickups in my prs salted custom 24 but I am stumped on the wiring. The guitar has hfs and vb pickups which are coiled taped with a blade 3 way switch and volume and a push/pull tone pot. What's confusing me is it has 5wires which are red,black,white,green and bare. White and green are soldered together and go to the push/pull switch and red on one of the pickup goes to ground with the black going to the pus/pull switch? Here's a pic hope it clear I need to know the colours because I shall be transferring them to another guitar and installing some oil city pickups in this. Please help thanks dazz http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk170/nutbox76/20160513_205116_zpsolxxdozu.jpg http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk170/nutbox76/20160513_205034_zpsgtrziomv.jpg

    PRS have a reversed magnet in one of the pickups, so the black and red wires for that pickup are also reversed to keep the phase correct. This allows them to keep some of the split combinations hum free.
    When you fit the new ones assuming that they are Ash's standard configuration just wire them as per his colour code with both hots going to the blade switch.
