Dear Sir,
I am going to be adding two blender tone pots to my Strat and want a simple wiring diagram if you’ve got it. Thank you so if you can assist. I just found your site and appreciate your efforts.

I would like to know if its possible to wire concentric stacked pots as vol/master vol or tone/master tone controls. if so how would I do this. I have an Ibanez roadstar505 that has 3 sgl coils,5way switch and 1 vol 1 tone control at the moment. I am trying to get some added flexibilty without drilling new holes in the guitar. If this idea is feasible please let me know where a diagram or a link might be found that would show me how this is done. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Jim

Hey Danny to let you know the Jeff Beck diagram is in accurate..If you wire it up like you have it the Neck PU won’t work.. The jumper on the switch is the culprit.. Take a look at the diagram on Fender’s website and you will see what I mean.. Hope this helps.. Tony

One of the pots on the bass guitar in our church band came loose and was turning. We didn’t catch it before it broke 4 wires loose. A schematic for a Yamaha RBX 755A five string bass would really help to get us back up and runnning.

Hello, I’m traying to wire a guitar with two humbuckers with a 5 way switch with coil splitting but the switch I have has 10 points in line (it’s chinesse and it is not like the ones in the diagrams) and I don’t know where each cable goes. If anybody can help me I’d be very thankful !

I am looking for a wiring diagram for an Aria Pro II “the Cat” guitar. Pickup configuration is H/S/S with a 5 way switch, 1 master volume and 1 push/pull tone. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok. So I have this Charvel strat style body with rout for 1 humbucker, and one volume pot. As this is a custom re-build to honor the individual who left it in my care and then died in a horrible car accident, I chose to install a Gibson P-90 dogear p/u, and wanted to add tone for it as well. I have a 5-way inline switch in the body now, but am not totally sure how to wire the switch with 4 progressively different caps. I want position 1 to be raw pickup, but each other position will get progressively bassier. PLZ help.

I would like to have information on how to install three [3] single coil pups with no tone controls and a cut-off switch. No pup selector or tone controls, just being able to blend the three pups to the out. I am working on a Dano and the customer wants something different, this should do it. Any help will be of much help. Thank you. Doug D.R.Guitars.
