Hi Paul, just joined the forum and I have been following some of the other threads to do with EDS 1275 problems, and I am hoping that I can find an answer here to mine.
Can you help me out?, I have been wiring up a Gibson (6/12), double neck and l am having trouble with the wiring connections of each pair of humbuckers into the pickup selector 3way toggle switch , and then into the neck selector switch  which is also a 3 way toggle. I have been following the Jimmy Page wiring diagram by Seymour Duncan which seemed straight forward until this final connection to the neck selector switch  what I thought would be just bringing both of the 3 way outputs 6 & 12 from the pickup selector toggle switches straight into the inputs of the neck selector toggle switch and then out to the output jack hot tab connection, but with this connection 
I suspect that the only other way would be to come of the middle tab of each dpdt push/pull volume switch, and into the neck selector toggle that way. Any info to help would be appreciated.
Thanks

How are you wiring up the JP wiring with on a volume and tone pot for each set of pickups?  The JP stuff I've done requires 2V and 2T per two pickups, so unless you have two separate JP wiring entities per ES1275 I don't see how this can be done unless the JP capability is abbreviated to 1V and 1T. If you are simply wiring up the existing 2V and 2T as a JP set and then attempting to split them into the necks selector you may be attempting something that cannot be done (not simply anyway).

I may not be across this, so maybe a little more explanation of how you are doing this or a schematic may be of assistance.

Hi, managed to sort it all out, what I have done is wired the jimmy page mod to the 6 string side of the double neck using as you said 4 dpdt push/pull switches, and wired up the 12 string side with the coil cut/ split phase mod using 2 push pull dpdt switches then connected them to the jack from the neck selector toggle switch.works well and a great sound.
Thanks anyway for responding.
