GibsonExplorer14 Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 Hey, some of you may have seen my post about parts for an Epiphone SG that I've recently fixed up. I'm new at the whole modding thing, but I know how to use a soldering gun. My problem is that I'm not sure how to wire a new pickup to the existing electronics. Can someone, post or email me a PHOTO of the guts of an SG Junior? My address is devon.pelley14@hotmail.com if you are emailing the pic. Thanks, and have a good night.
TWANG Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 check out www.guitarelectronics.com They should have a drawing of the wiring there.. just match your guitar to the parts.. what pups, what controls, etc.. and it'll show you. even has a printable click you can use. don't forget to turn your pots all the way DOWN when soldering.. you can put hot spots in them if you dont.. heat transfers to the pathway and makes them cut out! I also recommend you google some information, *probably have it at the above site* about cap values. they are cheap and any good poly cap, radio shack will have 'em, will work fine. changing the value a bit can affect the way your tone control works. and you may have a personal preference you aren't even aware of yet! I think you have single humbuck with volume and tone.. pretty easy and on the page above! TWANG
