Before mailing emg-support I thought I should ask this here because the problem seemed very simple to me (I have zero wiring experience 
)
I have got an 81 and an 85 but I don't have the quick connect cable for one of them yet. And it seems like I'll have to buy it from the USA. Until that shows up I want to wire the 85 to the bridge, and don't use the tone pot. I only want to wire it to the volume pot and start jamming
here's the original schematic for 1vol/1tone without switch
And here's what I thought I should do;
But this seemed too simple to me! If this is the correct schematic, those two cables with the question marks are the ones that are the two ends of the quick connect cable right? (I must be a genious
) That cable has three ends two of which are soldered together. Is it normally this way? or should I de-solder them? If so then do what? 
Thanks a lot for your help!

Wiring EMGs isn't any harder than wiring any other pickups though, and the change to lose the tone pot is the same as would have been the case with passive pups. People just get all sorts of weird ideas that it should be hard, and go "WTF, I have to replace the pots and jack?!? OMG, diffikult! EMG teh sukk!!!"
