wiring straight to jack
« on: December 08, 2009, 01:50:19 AM »
I've decided to wire my HD straight to jack with a coil split (for now, anyway). Are there any diagrams or suggestions for wiring one bridge pickup to jack?

its easy - have a look at the jack socket and you will see one wiring tab connects to the jack tip and one connects to the sleeve.

the hot wire from the pickup needs to attached to the jack tip and the ground to the sleeve.  You also need the bridge ground wire to contact the sleeve
