Assemble your guitar
Wire in the pickups
The switch and pots come pre-wired for an easy install, all
you need to do is wire the pickups to the switch using the
diagram below.
There is a coaxial wire and a separate ground wire attached
to the back of the volume pot. Clip the ground wire, it is not
needed. Run the hot and ground coaxial through the hole
for the jack.
Align the control plate
Align the control plate so it’s parallel to the treble edge of
the bridge. Mark out the hole locations and drill 3/8" deep
holes using a 1/16" bit.
Wire the jack
The bare ground wire gets soldered to the square (sleeve)
lug, solder the hot wire (usually yellow or white) to the round
(tip). Once soldered, install the jack plate on the guitar.
