Wiring Question

Hey all. i have a Cort Artisan A6. It has active electronics and a switch to make it passive. heres a diagram [URL="http://www.cort.com/techinfo/images/basses/a6.jpg"]http://www.cort.com/techinfo/images/basses/a6.jpg[/url] but for some reason that diagram does not have the switch. so heres something close [URL="http://www.cort.com/techinfo/images2/MK2(CURBOW).jpg"]http://www.cort.com/techinfo/images2/MK2(CURBOW).jpg[/url]
Heres my question.
I want to change the 2way toggle to a 3 way. i want to do this so that i can have it Passive, then completely off, then Active electronics. Is this possible with this [URL="http://guitarelectronics.zoovy.com/product/SWM22"]http://guitarelectronics.zoovy.com/product/SWM22[/url] ?

Nope, the wiring will be the same. The On/Off/On switches are exactly the same as On/On switches, except there is the Off position. Just move each wire from where it is on the old switch to the same spot on the new switch.
