wiring issues

Hello folks! Just wiring up my first bass and came across this link detailing how to set up a 3 way switch with a blend knob in the middle position - I've tried it out using the specific MEC On/On/On 4PDT and while there is signal coming from the bass when in the middle position, it doesn't...

I recently posted some pictures of an Aria Pro Magna Series II Bass that I have acquired in the Aria & Aria Pro II Club (Part Four) thread as I was curious to know which exact model it was. It was subsequently identified as being a MAB50. The previous owner did say that he had had a problem...

Hey all, long story short I purchased a Warwick RB Corvette $$ 5 string (the 4 knob active preamp system), and over the next few days, something was off with the wiring (I had taken it back to a tech at the music shop the day after purchasing it due to something I messed up with the nut, and he...

Greetings! I've had a 74-75 Gibson Ripper for a little over a year now, and it played and functioned perfectly until recently. The issue that I have now is that out of the 4 positions on the rotary switch, only one gives me "full volume". What I mean by that is that while positions 1, 2 and 4...

Hey, so, yeah. I’m stupid and I wired backwards and inverted to what I want. So, how would I get sound to my amp if I wanted to test if my jack burnt out really. Thanks for any responses, have a nice day.

Hi! I saw a lot of expert opinions on previous issues related to wiring, so figured I would post a picture of my wiring here and see what you guys think. I have a lot of hum when not touching the strings so according to what I read here this is a shielding issue. I was getting ready to work on...

hello! I've had this box sitting in my basement for a while. got it used just to have next to the drum set.. recently began using it and the horn is snapping, there are no highs and the low end is not tight at all. I pulled it apart and noticed that the person I bought it from had done some...

So my Fender Jazz (MIM Geddy Lee) had no shielding or ground wire to the output jack. I used MG solutions silver paint to do all the cavities and cable routes (both pickups, bridge) and tested them all for continuity. Almost 0 ohms reading. Great! I them soldered up the pickups back to the...

I’ve been searching for hours about how you can do that but I’m not getting anything. Any please tell me?

Hey guys, i need help wiring this cables, as you can tell by the pictures it´s a cheap active p-bass with poor quality pieces but it holds a special place on my heart since it was my 1st bass. So basically the wiring got torn apart and theres this 4 cables that got ripped off, i doesn´t seem...

This one seems pretty strange to me and I'm not sure where to start. I just got a cheap bass that needed some TLC. It works just fine when I run it through my Line 6 G-10 wireless transmitter. When I tried a cord all I get is a loud buzz, no signal just the buzz. Sounds like something is not...
