Thunderblitz Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 http://www.seymourduncan.com/support/schem...one-w-3way.html Heres the schema I have to follow. But the Red/Gray wires, I dunno what to do with them. I solder both pickup red/gray together or I just let them loose ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegarehanman Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Just like the schematic says, solder them together and either put some electrical tape around them or wrap them in heat shrink tubing. Those two wires are the end of one coil and beginning of another. You'd need them if you wanted to be able to tap a coil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderblitz Posted March 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 so I solder them, tape them and leave them loose ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegarehanman Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 well, i wouldn't advise you to have long wires loose in your cavity. Either cut them really short, solder them, and wrap them, or(if you think you might want a coil tap later) leave them long, solder them, wrap them, and zip tie them to something so they don't move around. It's a bad practice to leave wires loose in a control cavity. If the tape where to come off and the two soldered wires touched the ground, your humbucker would be running on only one coil. That's obviously not something you want to happen, if you're not expecting it. peace, russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderblitz Posted March 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 (edited) Well I would tape the wire on the body (in the cavity) so it doesnt move around. If you know what I mean. Edited March 5, 2006 by Thunderblitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegarehanman Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 I would put a staple in the wood in the cavity for you to zip tie the wire to, if you really don't want to cut it short. A zip tie won't let go of the wire, tape isn't so promising. Good luck with you mod. peace, russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderblitz Posted March 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 Oh well I'll figure out myself when I'll come through this. The electronic part is my fear as we speak, but I'm sure if I go slowly I'll be fine Thanks anyway for your answers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
