Hi guys
I'm trying to find out if the following is possible, and if not, a similar alternative?
1 x Humbucker Bridge - 4 Conductor
1 x P90 Neck - 2 Conductor - RW/RP
2 Volumes
2 Tones (With Push/Push switch)
3 Way Toggle Switch
Toggle Position Down - Bridge Tone Switch Off = Bridge Humbucker
Toggle Position Middle - Bridge + Neck Tone Switch Off = Outside Coil Of Bridge Humbucker + Neck P90
Toggle Position Up - Neck Tone Switch Off = Neck P90
Toggle Position Down - Bridge Tone Switch On = Bridge Coil Split (No preference to coil)
Toggle Position Middle - Bridge + Neck Tone Switch On (Or 1 off) = Inside Coil Of Bridge Humbucker + Neck P90
I hope you can get the jist of what I'm after. Any thoughts guys?

The P90 is RWRP.
I don't quite understand the relevance of some of what you have said. The two tone controls will have a push/push switch attached to each. The neck tone Switch wouldn't be to switch the neck P90...I know that can't happen.
Basically the standard 3-way toggle is a very simple switch - all it does is open one contact in each of the side positions, so it can only be used to turn one thing off at once, it can't turn on the neck pickup and split the bridge at the same time in the middle position.
The RWRP for the P90 doesn't actually make much difference if you want to be able to split to either coil of the humbucker - it will be hum-cancelling with one of them and not with the other.
I also prefer to use push switches for tone controls, because the tapers of the pots often aren't very nice for volumes, but it may seem odd for the neck pickup tone control to do something to the bridge pickup - although it will work, since the pot and switch parts are completely separate.

Just need to get hold of a damned wiring diagram now!
