New Keystone's

okies · August 12th, 2008, 06:38 PM

Just got my new Keystone Tele's with the chrome neck pickup. I am just amazed at the great tone of the bridge pickup but am not having much luck with the neck pickup. I am wondering if I wired them wrong? As you Keystone folks are aware, each pickup has 3 wires, 2 of which appear to be ground wires. I just connected both grounds to my grounding pot and the hot lead to the switch, was that right? The Tele got all new electronics, CTS pots, new switch etc when I did the install.

Just an addendum to my previous post, Bruce with Bill Lawrence Pickups seen my post here and emailed me about the problem, he is working with me via email to provide a fix for the neck pickup, that's what I call customer service++

Grammar police, here.
Plurals do not get an apostrophe.
"Keystones" is plural.
"Keystone's" is posessive...or a contraction.

You'll have to fill us in on what the fix was. I just ordered 2 sets but have not heard them yet.

Thanks for mentioning that Charlie. I see that a lot lately- where people put an ' in everything that ends with an s.

Actually, isn't "Keystone's" a contraction, posessive or not? I believe the "'s" is a contraction of "his".

Why? Is this necessary?
