Does anyone know how I would wire the switches for Parallel/single coil? I'd be looking to use the front coil on both pickups.

Thanks!
The Parallel wiring IS like 2 single coil pickups in each pickup bucking the hum against each other. That was the whole reason behind designing this pickup. Take 2 jazz pickups, cut away the screw tabs on one side of each pickup and glue them together. THAT is basically the Smith pickup in spirit but the coils and magnets are quite different than jazz pickups.
