thank you for all your advice But a friend of a friend wanted it to finish it, so i gave him it. It was great fun making the necks and body but by what you say i bought all the wrong electrics so he is going to show me it when its finished and hopefully let me have a go of it so my next guitar making is going to be semi acoustic so i can plug a complete pickup system like electro acoustic.

Sorry to be confusing, my whole idea I thought was straight forward but obviously not, i would like to use one vol and tone for bass and the same for lead when i use the switch it would change from lead to bass, the 5 way to change to which pickups like a strat/telecaster or most other guitars. hopefully you can understand what i am after and it is possible Thank you for your help

Thank you for your reply, i am grateful for your advice I have tried the way you explained the pickups and volume/tone works ok but when i try to connect the 5 way switch seperating the bass/lead through this i get buzzing through all of the system, it seems to be when i connect the common connector I have been on several guitar wiring sites showing lots of single necks with two pickups with volume and tone which is what i have but twin, wiring them independantly all works fine But connect both through one jack plug it all seems to go wrong, i know it is the switch from bass to lead or the 5 way I just cannot seem to get it to work with the parts i have, i know it Should work but i know i must be wiring it wrong also i have shaped the body so the space between the connections are close also it is fully painted so i do not want to cut out any of the body to fit more parts, so any circuits diagrams of the working parts available will be very thankfull

love it much better looking than mine

I built a double neck guitar over two years ago, every thing went ok until the wiring. It is a bass and lead guitar i built it from scratch making and shaping everything myself, then the wiring part which made me put it back into the attic for another year due to not getting anywhere with parts I thought would work, I have followed several different ways of wiring Outside of the guitar only to find things work and others don't, i know about earthing everything through string buzz but I am obviously not wiring this correct, can you please advise how to wire this so one day I can plug it into my combo and hear what it sounds like. I have two humbuckers and two bass pickups already cut out of body to fit i have took pictures of the parts I have got, a very basic diagram will be extremely greatful
