chriswilliams666 Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Hey Guys I got a parts bass i am trying to wire together a Seymour Duncan SJB-3b and SPB-3 (Standard PJ Pickups) I would like to wire these two two volumes, no tone control straight to the socket. I have wired them up as i think, but i just get the pickups both on at the same time, and the volumes dont work. Can anyone help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bass Doc Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Sorry, can't do linky things, but if you go on the Seymour Duncan website and select the standard Jazz wiring diagram, just imagine missing out the tone pot i.e. take the 'hot' lead from the 2nd volume pot (left leg looking at the diag) straight to the + on the jack.

deaver Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I was planning to do more or less the same thing this afternoon. This is the butchered version of the SD diagram: [attachment=45900:mm_p_notone.jpg] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcrow Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 wire the hot to pins 2 and pin 1 to pin 1 on the other pot then from pin 1 on the other pot to the jack this is looking on the bottom of the pots and pin 1 is first in a anti clocwise direction it will still work if you get it wrong but the vols will work backward earth pin 3 on both to the pot body and then a earth to the jack you may have wired the pots with hot to pin one and then pin 2 to pin 2 on the other pot this doesnt work as one pot cuts out the other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
