Solder won’t stick to the pots?
Solder won’t stick to the spring claw?
This is what I do to make it much easier for the solder to stick.
Also make sure you have a good tip on your soldering iron, and it is heating properly.
I recommend at least a 30watt iron.
Thanks for watching!

Hey man just want you to know that after a year of you posting this, its still useful. Thank you very much
Your welcome, I’ve been doing it a long time and it will work. Also get yourself a good solder iron, not a cheap one. More than 15watts. Mine is a 30-65watt.
Good tip. Thanks! Happy New Year!👍😎🎸🎶
Thanks dart!! I’m sure you probably new that already… I just got done wiring the LP. Doing a setup right now and soon I’ll have a review and demo of it. Hope you had a good Christmas and Happy New Year!👍🎶🎸
Awesome thx for the tip. Have a great New Year.
Your welcome Tony!! Happy New Year to you and your family!
yes remove all oxidation first
I hope this works, I've been trying to build a guitar and soldering to the pots is by far the hardest part for me, its depressing really
I have been soldering guitars since the 80’s. I used to get frustrated too until I tried this. Make sure you have a good soldering iron too, 30-60watts, 15 will work eventually but it takes a long time to get hot enough. Use a clean tip and tin it first. Hope this helps. You can do it!
Super helpful thank you sir!
No problem, glad to help
Volume pots need to come with a tab to solder the grounds. Save all this crap. I have ruffled my pots, soldered pots, still won't stick, even tried flux. Still won't stick. Its not working for me.
Maybe you need a new soldering iron. I had a cheap 15watt one for a while and it took forever to work. Now I have a 60watt one and it is so much easier with it. It does help to scratch up where you are going to solder.
