Description
This is a pre-wired harness for selecting between two pickups on an electric guitar. It includes a volume and tone pot with knurled chrome knobs, a 0.047uf capacitor soldered to the tone pot, and a 3-way selector switch. All of the components are mounted in a nice shiny mounting plate (chrome or gold), for easy installation into your guitar, cigar box guitar or other instrument.
By using a pre-wired setup like this takes all of the guess-work out of a more complicated pickup assembly. Just install your pickups, connect the leads to the correct points on this component, install your output jack, and you're good to go.
Using this item does require some wiring & soldering. Please note that as shown in the wiring diagram photo, positive leads from the pickups get soldered to the two sets of joined lugs on the left and right sides of the center lead. The ground wires from the pickups are attached to one of the black ground leads (doesn't matter which one). The second black lead is the ground to the output jack, and the white lead is the positive/hot to the output jack. NOTE THAT THIS WIRING METHOD IS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT FROM THE GOLD VERSION OF THIS PRODUCT.
Both pots in this harness are 500KOhm.
