Hey everyone, I'm new here, so I just thought I'd briefly introduce myself.
I bought a used Music Man Sub1 a few months ago, and the original owner had put in a JB/Jazz set. It sounds great, I really love these pickups. The only problem was that he didn't do the best wiring job so eventually it started having problems. It was actually my fault because while looking at the wiring I accidentally pulled a wire loose haha. But it's still messy looking so I'm just gonna rewire it to clean it up. This is actually good because I'll have experience with this kind of thing if I ever want to change pickups in any other guitars.
So does anyone have a wiring diagram for a JB/Jazz set? Specifically, it will be a JB in the bridge and Jazz in the neck (I think it's a pretty common combo). It will have the stock 3-way toggle and a single 500k volume pot. I need the positions on the toggle to be bridge humbucker when the toggle faces down, both the bridge and the neck when the toggle is in the middle, and the neck humbucker when the toggle is facing up.
I have a question though. When you are running two full humbuckers together, are they usually run series or parallel? I thought parallel was used for coil splitting and series for everything else, but I'm probably wrong haha.
If this is a frequently asked for diagram, could anyone give me a link to it? I used the search feature but I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks in advance, any and all help is appreciated!
