How to spend a sick-day... part 1

chris77

So I was at home today with a serious case of Flu and thought I might as well spend my time productively.
The patient is my Ibanez Ajd 91c that recently had a botched pic-up instalation.
Read that the biggest bitch about any wiring work on a semi hollow is the get the switches and knobs back in place. One tip was to tie them with Floss, so you could just pull them back in when you’re done. So I started with that

Next, out came all the wiring. Boy - what a mess.

The wiring from tone pot to volume pot was waaayyy to long. Snip-snip...

Remembered I had a pus-pull pot somewhere... so why not.

Marked my Bridge pup wiring with some masking tape so that I don’t confuse myself with what goes where.

Marked the selector switch for the same reason

Where is "Snake Road, Gauteng"? If not too far from Vaal, pop by and we will do it together.
