Fishman only have the basic wiring diagrams for common control layouts and such, so you'll have to improvise by using other diagrams in conjunction with it. In theory, if you find a wiring diagram that matches your guitar's, then you can look at that for your specific 5-way switch wiring, and the Fishman "Super Switch" diagram for the pickups.

I'll crank that neck p/u way down later tonight - I suspect it's just that. No crazy hum anywhere, which is awesome. Pardon my ignorance with all things electronics, how do I tap the coils? I'm pretty certain I have the p/u's plugged in standard configuration - I do not have coil taps/HF Tilt/or the low gain setting activated for now. I'll probably try setting the low gain mode on the neck to see how that balances. Thanks for the info.
In this case literally tap both sides (neck/bridge) of the pickup with something metal. I usually use the round side of a wrench (don’t want to accidentally gouge the cover with a screwdriver).
This is a good quick functional test after doing anything with the electronics before restringing.
P.S. I’d do it on a clean channel.
P.P.S. The whole “Modern neck pickup too bassy” thing has been a common complaint in various threads as of late. Hasn’t really been a problem for me, but it sounds like you’re hearing the same thing as others.
P.P.P.S. The “coil tap” function on the pickups is actually a coil split (tap vs split is a whole different can of worms) that let’s you pick just one of the two coils in the pickup. This feature alone has me using Fishman over EMG in my ERG at the moment.
Exactly, never trust white peope who had dreadlocks in their 30s.
