HELP, Need a pickups schematic. Thank you

tuja · July 4th, 2008, 01:10 PM

Hi there from Portugal!

I need a schematic for a 3 single coil,five way switch 2vol 1tone telecaster.
-The tone only controls the midle and bridge pickup
-The first vol only controls the neck
-The second Vol controls the midlle and the bridge pup
- The neck pickup doesn´t need Tone control

thank you so much.

nothing special for the xperts...

just a 3 singlecoils, 5way switch, 1 vol neck pup, 2 vol other 2 pups.
the tone knob only for the midle and bridge pup schematic

come on guys!

Schematic attached, as requested.

Note that this works like a Les Paul with 2 volumes, where if both neck and middle pickup are selected, then both volumes are active, and if EITHER ONE is turned off, then you get no sound (good for doing violin swells).

It should be said that tuja PM'd me asking for a wiring diagram, and I have declined for the moment due to time constraints. I offered some tips on how to read schematics, but tuja is still looking for someone to translate - fair enough ;-) Here is what I offered:

... there are 2 wires from each pickup, one goes to the earth (ground) - that's the symbol with the 3 horizontal lines. All the earths are connected together. Each of the pots has 3 connections. The centre one is the centre one in the diagram. A wiper inside the pot moves the centre connection between the top and bottom connection - the top connection on the diagram represents the most clockwise connector looking at the back of the pot. The switch has 2 banks of 4 connectors, represented by 4open circle connectors in the schematic. One of the connectors connects to any of the other 3 connectors by moving the switch - if your switch is open you'll be able to see which connector this is.

Hope this helps.

Graeme i must thank you from the other side of the planet( Do you know the longest travel you can made by plane from australia is for Portugal(my little country in europe).

Well i tryed to follow your schematic...but theres something wrong,doesn´t works, i´m sure your schematic is right but im too rookie to understand it.

That is the reason i need a wiring diagram more basic and explicit for me of course.

But thank you, you are a very kind person and value member of this greatest forum.

i´m sorry for my terrible english.

Kind regards

Here you are, tuja

I don't really have any good drawing software, but hopefully this makes sense. Let us know how you go.
