  • Dimarzio wiring?

    I've looked up and down the internet for good diagrams, but I've turned up nothing or very shitty diagrams from dimarzio, Can anyone shed some light on the subject for me?

    In this wiring way I did it the Neck pickup works just fine and the bridge is very low sounding, barely there, can anyone help me out or give me a good wiring diagram. I think I'm having problems mostly with the switch..

    Gear:
    none

    The caps need to wired to the lug and to the back of the tone pot.
    Really? well screw Mark Twain.

      One of your tone pots isn't grounded.

      Also, the far right lugs on both volume pots need to be grounded.

        The diagrams I've gotten from Dimarzio's website seem to be very detailed, they give you several senario's. I do know this, the "hot" wire on all pickups isn't always the red, I experienced low noise with a pickup going from Duncan to Dimarzio and I wired like the Duncan but ended up being the wrong lead to the pot, switched them and bang! noise.

          DiMarzio's wiring is indeed different than Duncan's.

          I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

            Your reds and pot grounds should not be on the same lugs.
