Here's the original Wiring Diagram

Ok, I redrew the schematics exactly as I see them in the old fax I got from Jackson a long time ago. I drew two configurations (volume, mid, and tone and volume, mid, and high). My question is regarding the volume pot and the tone pots (w/ center detent). In the diagram I labeled the posts as 1, 2 and 3, and if you look at the tone pots, they're wired in the reverse of the volume. This is how it's represented in the original schematic but it doesn't make sense to me. If anyone can shed some light on this issue I'm all ears. Thanks in advance. Volume, Mid, High Volume, Mid, Tone Al

In 1995 or 96 I bought this pair of Jackson Charvel Reflex active pick-ups in S-H configuration for the project. I've heard they are great so I can't wait till it's finished so I can hear them.

This is my 1980s Charvel Charvette that I started on about 15 years ago. Then, for no reason other than being lazy, put it in a closet and forgot about it. Recently, I remembered my old project and decided to finally get off my butt and finish what I had started. These pics show how far I got when I started in 1995. I was able to remove all the black lacquer and get it pretty smooth. I primed it and tried to paint it but was not at all satisfied with the results. So I stripped it again but only half way and quit. Here’s what I’m starting with, AGAIN! Can anyone recommend a good glue to repair the seperated fret board? And here is what it looks like after my first day of sanding. I managed to get all the primer off. I still don’t know how the finish will be. I thought of lightly staining it black and leaving it matte but I'm open to any suggestions. I know it's not the best guitar but I don't plan on dumping a bunch of money into it and it'll be good practice for when I build my custom. Thanks for looking and I'll post as I go. Rock On!! Al

Great work SD! I can see this guitar is going to be absolutely gorgeous. I'm extremely new to working on guitars and have been trying to find the neck bolts with inserts for a project I'm working on and haven’t had any luck. If you could point me in the right direction I'd greatly appreciate it. Keep up the excellent updates and I'm really looking forward to reading about your progress. Thanks in advance and have a great Saturday!
