  3. DO NOT USE A SOLDERING GUN these are very diffcult to use and dont give good results use a soldering iron 30 watt should do use normaly solder and make sure all joints/welds are shiny if not get a solder pump remove the solder and then resolder the joint. just rember to use flux core and dont bother with an epensive one unless u are plaing on solder miro chips and other small heat sentive eletronic item the ones in guitar are nt that heat sentive.
