Hi ,

I´m wiring 2 pickups(81&85) with 1volume 1 tone and a 3way toggle switch...I´m following the diagram in this page :

www.emgpickups.com/pdf/2 EMG 1v 1t 3wt.pdf

I´m almost sure that I´m doing everything right but I can't get the volume control to work it doesn´t change the volume in anyway ,maybe the volume pot has a problem or maybe I´m grong in some way ...I´d apreciate your help..

Hi i need help in wiring some Emg 81 & 85 pickups to an ibanez guitar

My problem is that I don´t now what wiring diagram to follow because the pickup selector for the ibanez guitars are different so It seems that the wiring diagrams on the emg official page doesn´t work for me..

The guitar should finish being a guitar with 1 volume 1 tone (25k each)..and two hambuckers the 81 on the bridge and 85 on fingerboard and a 3 way switch...

If someone could help in what to do...or send me a wiring diagram to my mail or whatever would be really apreciated!

Ok..thank´s Brian ...

Then ,it would be okay if I paint it with laquer over the enamel primer paint and then clear coat it all with TRANSPARENT LAQUER??

Or It´s better if I do everything with enamel even thought I would have to change the color in wich I´ve had planed to paint the guitar???

Thank´s !!

Hi everyone

This question it´s maybe simple but anyway I´ll better ask.

I am doing a guitar right from the wood..

I´ve already prime it with enamel spray paint, but then it comes the color coat, I ´m looking for a finish that I have only been able to find in Laquer spray paint.

I have asked a lot on what will happen if I paint with laquer over a primer enamel surface and then clear coat it with transparent enamel.

Everyone has tell me that the result will be a horrible terrific disaster!!

Anyway I´ve already tried this in a piece of wood and nothing happens it looks great and no problems..but i don´t know if the problems will come throught the pass of time or what!!

Please tell what to do.Thanks for your answers

Hi,I´m new to the site....

My question is about painting the pickups of a guitar .I´ve seen many guitars and they have the pickups painted according to the finish of the guitar.

in my case I´m finishing my first guitar and I want to paint the pickups but I don´t know if this is done the same way the guitar is painted.

The pickups of the guitar are EMG and I´m painting the guitar with spray cans.

My question is basically because i don´t know if painting the pickups affect in some way the sound of a guitar.

Thank ya´all
