I tried to do like you said but maybe i did something wrong?


Tag 1 is wired to tag 8 and volume. The red wire from the bridge is wired to tag 2 and 3. The wire from the SC is wired to tag 4 and 5. And the red from the neck is wired to tag 6 and 7.

But i dont get any sound from the middle position? And to me all the other positions sound like each other :?

This is how it was wirered from the beginning. So if someone can tell me how it would look with BKP's colours that would be great.

Put the red from the BK to the same place as the reds in the diagram, and put the green/white to the white contact in the diagram.  The way they have the switch makes a 'short to ground' on the inbetween settings so that you only get the screw coils.  The black and uncovered wire should both go to the back of the vollume pot, to ground.
So many pickups, so little time

There would be a volume drop if the pickups are out of phase.  To check this, swap the red and black wires from the BK's (but leave the uncovered, so you have red and uncovered to ground and black to the switch).  This should be in phase then.

Well, everything I do seems to go wrong, so I think I will take it to a shop.
