Post by Sgt. Vimes Sat Jun 07, 2014 8:28 am

Ok so I'm replacing a dirty fingers pup with a 5 conductor pup, the new pickup came with the usual red/white soldered together and the black/bare soldered together, plus a green.
green is hot, (checked this on the multimeter) black is earth.
the Dynasty wiring diagram tells me the red should go to the top right lug of the volume-pp switch, the black to top right of the T2 switch and green to the top left of  T2 switch, do these wiresmatch my new pickup?
mike...damian...?

ok, it's just that the dynasty diagram has no pointers for that earth connection.

so on the diagram there, the bridge white goes to T2 top right switch lug, which wire is that on my pup?


Do I split my black/bare and put the bare to ground(pot case) and black to T2 top right?

I would, they're as cheap as they come over here...obviously you can get the same cheaper in bulk from china but...shop local, embrace the middleman Smile

I like these destroyers, and their Invader copies, big dark and ballsy!
not found a decent paffy style from him yet though  Sad
