I have a 60’s reissue strat that does not have the “screw” to body wire. Instead there are two black wires going to plug in Jack. Where do I put the screw wire from the new pre wired pick up guard?
Note: I switched to standard Stratocaster wiring. The ‘blender’ wiring was a bad idea, the reason: when you switch pickups, you have to move the blender knob as well. A complete pain in the ass compared to just hitting the switch and being where you want to be.
Yep. This is what I needed. Short and sweet. Thanks!
Awesome Mike glad it helped man. Have a Merry Christmas! 🎄

Pretty sure that wire goes to the tremolo claw plate that the springs connect to. Also, be sure to twist your output wires going to your jack.
Screw to body is for grounding the conductive paint they sometimes use in the control cavities of a strat for shielding. Hope this helps.
