Another (!) wiring question....

I think I've been a dumb@ss and wired a tone pot backwards.......

With the tone on 10, the pickups sound a little more muffled than they did before. Cranking down the pot has no effect until I hit about 1, when the sound cuts out altogether. :smack:

Have I wired it back-to-front?

It would help if you had a picture, if you wired it backwards it should go dark when at ten and get brighter as you turn it down ... the cutting out ... sounds like something is mucked ... that shouldn't happen period. Can't really say any more without a picture. If your a righty, the clockwise lug should be empty (the one on the left with the shaft pointing down, and the three solder lugs pointing towards you). The other two are for the connections.
