Well to make the story short, I did the wiring below to my strat, while upgrading the entire wiring, including wires, using the guitarfetish strat upgrade kit. I bought some wire from a place in Calgary called active electronics.

I just plugged in an overdrive (visualsound jekyll and hyde dual overdrive) to the "line in" on my pc, and connected the guitar to that...so sound quality isn't very good...sorry :D...but at least you can hear the different tones. In the clip, I change switch position for each individual lick. I have all knobs at 10 for ease of recording. I can get a lot more tones though if I play with the tone pot and the blend pot...its crazy...plus ALL the tones I find are very usable!!! Something the stock wiring didnt have much of...

sounds much better through a tube amp haha...I used ceramic capacitors btw, so perhaps an orange drop cap would sweeten it up even more.

Can certainly hear the difference in the tone(s), pretty cool mod. Gotta work on them bends though!
What are you talking about? Its not a competition smartass...Im trying to demonstrate my wiring...
Wow, calm down.

I commented on the tones and threw in a suggestion to work on the bends. Sue me for trying to help you.
Get VLC. Excellent movie player.
Yep, VLC and MPC are the best out there IMO.
