  • NEED J-95 & J50 Pickup Color Codes

    From an 88 Student Archtop..the J-95 has green, orange, and three white wires. J-50 has green, orange, brown, and two white wires. They're not added on, they're original. Need to re-wire this and cannot find these codes. THANKS!

    Never in my years of C/J collecting have I seen any USA Jackson wound pickup with original brown or orange wires. Perhaps yours changed color over the years due to chemical or other means, I don't know. USA wires were: red and white was series link, hot was black, green and bare were ground. You could swap the black for green in phasing problems with other pickups, including Duncans.

    Gotta get away from here.
    Feelin' like I shoulda kept my feet on the ground
    Waitin' for the sun to appear..."

      Well, here's a close-up of the J-95. The J-50 is identical except it has a lt. brown wire in place of one of the whites...
