How to install

Neck Pickup 1: Hot

Solder your Neck pickups "Hot" (Yellow on Diagram) to the second right lug

 

Neck Pickup 2: Coil Finish

Next, Solder the Neck Pickup's "Coil Finish" also known as the "black -" wire on the diagram to the bottom right lug

Neck Pickup 3: Neck Cover Ground

If your Neck pickup has a cover, you will need to solder it to the casing of the volume pot.

Bridge Pickup 1: Hot

Solder your Bridge pickup's "Hot" (white on Diagram) to the top right lug

Bridge Pickup 2: Ground

Next Solder the Bridge Pickups "Ground" (Black of the Diagram) to the casing of the Volume Pot

Tailpiece Ground

Lastly, Solder the ground wire that is coming from your guitars tailpiece to the casing of the closest pot. In the video example the tone pot was the closest. Please note that if you don't have a tailpiece ground, you will need a Bridge pickup with a metal plate on the bottom. The screws connecting the pickup to the bridge will turn your bridge pickup's "ground" wire into a tailpiece ground.

Next Solder the White "output" to the hot Lug

Output Wire Install: Ground wire

Lastly, Solder the (Colored) ground wire to the Inner Ground Lug Please note that if you don't wire these correctly and reverse the connections you will cause non stop hum  

And thats it!

Test the controls before restringing the guitar by lightly taping the pickups.
