KSG_Standard Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 IDK...but the wire from the bridge on my 135 is not soldered to anything, it never has been and everything works as it should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cistec Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 Thanks KSG...sounds weird to leave a wire exposed..strange I have 2 new Humbuckers and I just want to be sure before I replace old ones. The metal sheath around the new Humbuckers has to be seperated from the center hot wire and used for the ground wire is that correct?. Also can you tell me on your 135 where and which tone and volume pots are connected to the Neck and Bridge ...I forgot to take a image..silly me! if you got an image or diagram I could look at Vol-Tone positions and that would be appreciated. any body can send one if they wish and any advice would be welcome! cistec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSG_Standard Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I'll borrow a camera and take pictures of my 135, since mine doesn't have f-holes, it has a removable backplate and it will be easy to photograph. It'll take me a day to find a camera and get pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
