    This has got to be one of the best instructional videos on YT on how to install pickups into a Tele. But it's most of the important wiring is totally out of focus. Sigh. It's honestly a great instructional video.

    do you have the tone and volume pots switched? Isn't the volume pot next to the switch usually?

      The pots can be in either hole it doesn’t matter I just like the volume closer so I can do volume swells when playing

    It always help when soldering clean metal. There is usually a little bit of oil on them from manufacturing.

    Do the hot pickup wires get soldered across the 2 posts, or do you run a wire across 2 posts and then solder the hot wire to just one post? Hope that makes sense

    Shouldn't the volume pot be next to the 3 way switch ?

    • @outbackguitars3272

      It can be any way you like I keep them close to the bridge on my teles so I can do volume swells when I play. But it’s personal preference

    How do you make the cavity for the 3 way switch? Do you just route a pocket on the front or do you need to route that pocket on the back?

    • @outbackguitars3272
      @outbackguitars3272  7 місяців тому

      Telecasters generally have a routed pocket on the front and the plate covers the route. On some fancier custom ones I have seen a route on the back but that just makes a bit more work when cutting the slot for the selector switch

    What's your thoughts on grounding the metal housing of the switch back to a pot body? Necessary or not? Cheers.

    • @outbackguitars3272
      @outbackguitars3272  Рік тому

      on these switches there is a wire for that purpose and ive always seen them in the diagrams i read so yeah I would definitely put it in

    • @pauldbrown1010

      @@outbackguitars3272 Yeah there's a tag on the switch body for it, and whilst you could rely on the screws through the control plate, with all the anodising and lacquer on some of them there may not be a proper connection. Definitely doing it. Cheers from Sydney 👍🙂

    You need to slow down. I haven't been able to see any of the wiring which is a real shame coz uve got the data I need. Center the object and slow down. Be well

    Nonstop talk with his British accent is NOT useful to an American English speaker. Get the video IN FOCUS and then post it.
