hello.
new here with a ground wire question. can’t seem to find the right answer/wiring diagram or anything other than suggestions on better piezo systems/comments on why i should get different duncans, why do i want two volumes, why no tone knobs… - etc.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
i’m installing a cheap/quick kaish piezo tune-o-matic bridge with volume (and POSSIBLY a tone knob) alongside a duncan str-1 (neck)/duncan pegasus (bridge) combo. the duncans will be set-up with a three-way toggle between them, one volume for each and no tone knobs. the switch will be solely for selecting between the duncans as the kaish and the duncans combo will have SEPARATE output jacks since i don’t plan on “blending” them onboard. the kaish itself has a braided shield wrapped around a signal wire and nothing else.
my question is: do i still need to (if so how do i) get the existing ground wire from the tailpiece to both systems? could i just sort of daisy chain the ground wire from the tailpiece to the kaish vol/tone pot and onto the duncan vol/tone pot? i’ve seen the same installation done with the same basic set-up except it was for a STEREO jack with a switch to blend the two systems.
