Hi,
I hardly use the middle pickup on its own and was wondering if anyone had a wiring diagram to have the tone control on the bridge rather than the middle pickup?
Thanks.

Hi, take a look at this two wiring examples. The soldering points of the switch could differ - based on the US/EU/Asia system used for the part, but the principle remains the same..
Example of original style wiring could be found here.
Three soldering point on the switch (red wires + empty) are related to the three pickups - changing one (middle red) wire from middle to the empty soldering point will change the tone control form middle to bridge pickup. Second image shows how to achieve control for all three of your pickups with two tone knobs by small reordering and connecting the wires...

And here example of HSS configuration. As you can see the default principle is the same. One consideration is the pot values. Humbucker could benefit form 500K pots, single coils 250K. Effectively, depending on the pickup and your preferences, it will affect brightness/darkness of the pickups.
As you can see the section with one or two capacitors on tone pots allows you to use different capacitors for different set of pickups.
