Hello, forum users, I'm new here and I'm a new Bareknuckle owner. So, I have this 2003 RG 1527 without any electronics whatsoever. My new set of aftermaths arrived about 2 weeks ago. I bought the pots, wire, ground wire, jack and a 3way Dimarzio telecaster-style switch. Now, I would only like to use the pick-ups alone--neck or bridge (series, I think), or together and I found this diagram and the color code. I would like to know if they will work for me. Thanks a lot!
P.S. I'm not doing the installation myself (I've never soldered anything in my life), but I am researching as far as I can so that I give the luthier every information that he might need (it's their job, but sometimes they do the same thing with every guitar)

The info that comes with the pickups will be sufficient for what you want.

I actually had a good look through the support section on the website, and I'm really surprised there isn't an HH, 1 Vol, 1 Tone, 3-Way diagram. The closest I can find id the one with the push/pull Tone. Of course it's easy to figure out by looking at other diagrams, but I think the diagram your wanting would have been a good, if not important, addition to the diagram section

The diagrams you've got should be more than enough.
Alternatively, this BKP diagram pretty much shows the right wiring - just substitute another humbucker for the Tele bridge pickup, and 500k pots instead of 250k.
