theQuestioneer Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 does the p-90 have a metal mesh around the one wire? if so it is the ground, effectively the second wire.... this dumb comp dosn't have paint, i'll see about getting you one unless someone gets to it first...

theQuestioneer Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 here- a P-bass is wired the same way, but with a bass pickup. pretend that whole pickup is just the p-90. the one going to the back of the volume pot is the ground. igonore the wire from one part of the pickup to the other. and the capatince on that cap is probably wrong, but you do use a cap of some sort. the P-90s use 250k i belive, am i mistaken gentlemen?

fidgec94 Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 No idea on the pot/cap values but there should definately be some kind of shield or braid to take to ground. The first time i looked at my pickups, i thought the same thing, i didnt understand that the shield/braid is normally taken to ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
