    Hello friends, I want to install the epiphone thunderbird pikcups on a p bass style body (because yes) but, why does they only have one wire per pickup? I have known that pickups always have two wires. If I want to do a traditional installation, how to do it? s-l1600.jpg

    I suspect that if you strip the outer insulation you’ll find a shielded wire like the picture below. The braided shield goes to ground and the inner wire is the signal hot.
