Here is how it turned out after the rebuild.

The day I got it.

My Traben project.

Thanks for looking,

Enjoy!

Got some help in a thread over here.

moved ferrules and filled front side cut out with metal epoxy.

Here we go.

Done. Got it! Thank you all

Hellzero and PaulThePlug

Thank you!

I should have stated earlier, but I think everyone already knows, I have the active pickups not the hz passive. Thought I should put that out there in case someone ask, I should have said that my first post. 

Here it is before I painted wires, just in case someone wants to use it to correct me.

This is also a possibility, the only thing I done differently here is run a battery wire up from the blend to the Power Buss.

Wait, sorry. Here is starting over. Pasted in an actual image of my blend because the one I have here is not exactly like the drawing.

I hope this wiring schematic is right and all I have to do.

Pickups, wired to power buss/blend and blend wired to BQS

I'm going to attempt new schematics showing the parts I have and how I think they should go, up first is a fill in the blanks sheet in case I'm wrong and someone, anyone could please correct me if I'm wrong that would be great.

what's straining my brain, the main printout I have shows Blend (A) I have Blend (B)

Clearer than this schematic is impossible as everything is exactly stating what it means.

 

Sorry, but if you don't understand it, don't start using a soldering iron or it will end up with a disaster.

 

Go to someone understanding it and the pickups will be fitted in no time, especially as EMG is using connectors since at least 25 years, so there's no need for a soldering iron, except if you are mixing old and new items...

 

The red wire on EMG's is always the + battery wire.

 

The white wire is always the hot output of the pickup.

 

The braided shield is always the ground of the pickup.

 

The ground is, ... well, the ground.

 

The output is where it goes to the next stage, which can be the volume, the preamp or the output jack, depending on what you need or want.

 

The black wire here is the ground of the pickup (= braided shield).

Thank you for the information, I'm close now but not 100%

Thank you all in advance for any help you can give me. Sincerely thank you! I hope to get this thing working this weekend.

Another picture.

More pictures.

I'm hoping to do this this weekend, I have one pickup here an another on the way. Here with me now is a EMG MMCS for the bridge, and on the way is an EMG 35P4 for neck position.

I also have the EMG BQS Control

I can take more photos if you all need them.

The most important thing confusing me is, why is there two solder holes? I just pick one and solder to it right?
