Wiring Pickups

This guitar comes with a control plate that has most of the components soldered in place. You only need to solder the pickup wires onto the three way switch and volume control. If done incorrectly, soldering the wires may cause dam- age to the components. If you are unsure of your skills; do your research, practice on scrap wires, or take it to a professional.
