fishguts Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 Hello everone I am wiring my strat with a single SD invader and need some help. This is the schematic I am looking at http://www.seymourduncan.com/website/suppo...1hum_1vol.html/ It says that the bare and green wires are soldered to the ground. Can I solder them to the backof the volume pot? The schematic also shows black wire from the pot that needs to be grounded. Can I solder that wire to the tremolo block? And the last question is the wire that I need to ground from the output jack can I solder that to the back of the volume pot? If I need to do anything else please tell me.

westhemann Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 yes,no,and yes i can't see your schematic though so i am taking your word for the color of the ground wires on that pickup...i don't remember what mine had but ground the one you were going to put on the trem block to the trem claw instead,as it doesn't move all the time like the block does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishguts Posted October 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 Hi everyone. I finally did the wiring to my guitar last night. I grounded the green and bare wire to the back of the pot, and soldered the back wire to the tremolo claw, and did everything else it showed on the diagram, but there is no output.

westhemann Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 the black wire on the pickup does not go to the trem claw...it goes to the volume pot,it is not a ground...that is your hot wire the wire that goes to the trem claw is attached at the other end to the common ground at the back of the volume pot...that is a completely seperate wire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
