Hello everybody, i bought a Squier Tele, it's around 15 years old, never been cleaned or given any love, it's only my second guitar and a bit of a project. I've asked around and even put a price on making me an easy to follow diagram for the electrics.
Basically these are my parts http://s132.photobucket.com/albums/q16/venaz/wiring/
The guitar originally came with the pots and both of the green capacitors installed (can't remember how/where)
The 3-way switch was broke so i bought a 5-way switch as i was told you can get different sounds from 'tapping' humbuckers (i'd just purchased a seymour duncan lil'59).
I also bought a treble bleed kit as i have a distortion pedal and was told this will help with the tone. Does this replace the other capacitors?
Any ideas on how to wire this? I've been looking at a few different diagrams, this one in particular http://www.seymourduncan.com/support/wiring-diagrams/schematics.php?schematic=tapped_tele_5way but it doesnt have the green and bare wire my lil'59 does, i'm also confused as to what 'ground wire from bridge' is...
Hope someone can help! Cheers guys
