Hey guys, Ive been a long time reader of this forum and i'm now starting to do some work of my own and I have a few questions so I thought I should finally register
Anyways, im getting ready to do some pickup wiring for the first time. I have experience with soldering but not with electronics so some of these questions may seem stupid so please be gentle with me!
This is going to be a H/H configuration coil tapped by a 5-way toggle, since I dont understand electronic diagrams yet can I just visually follow the wiring pattern on another one of my guitars with the same configuration? Is there anything I should watch out for, anything that might be different? Anyone any good links about wiring diagrams?
If I can follow the wiring pattern of one of my guitars I'll need to Identify which wire is the neck pickup and which is the bridge pickup. Easiest way I can see if by identifying which pickup is wired to the first tab on the selector switch (the side closest to the neck). I'm presuming its the bridge but I want to make sure.
What wattage soldering iron should I use for this? I want to be able to melt the solder but not damage the cable.
Thanks for your help guys
