Need Help With Wiring?

Recommended Posts

In a bind here guys, I need some type of diagram/ schematic for wiring a new push/ pull tone pot into my Epiphone Les Paul Standard Pro. I recently purchased it from a guy in my area, and he accidently pulled the tone pot shaft out for the bridge pickup. The replacement pot I have is similar with the exception of not having the printed circuit board on it. The original is a B500K and the replacement is an A500K. The guy cut the plug from the pickup wiring off even with the wires. I have no idea where to solder the 5 conductor pickup wires to on the new pot? There is absolutely no info online that I've been able to find, only Jimmy Page diagrams. Any help would be awesome... I'd love to keep the guitar as original if possible, but if need be... I can just do a regular non-split 500K pot in it's place. Thanks in advance.

Hello and welcome here.

 

Cutting off a plug including wires sounds not good. How much wire is left? First would be to determine which wire is which coil and polarity. Perhaps some Epiphone specialists here will know at a glance.

 

I think it would be best you post hi-res pics of the electric compartment.

 

Please use an account created at a cloud photo provider like photobucket or imgur for upload and paste the IMG links into your post. That's what we all do here - attachment memory per member is only 500 kB, not sufficient for a single hi-res pic.
