Does any1 know if how ?? Cos I recently soldered my pickup in and noticed a wire was loose. It was 1 of 2 wires, the other wire was white and is wired as shown in the schematics...

Strat 3 single coil 1 volume 2 tones

it shows the black wire is earth, but I'm not sure how its done, I think that you just solder it to the volume pot. I really just wanted to know before I tested it if its done correctly. Thanks

Re: Earthing

Yeah, usually the ground wires go to the pot.. Take a look at it.. there should be 2 wires going to the output jack.. the one coming from the pot is ground.
There also should be a wire going to the bridge from the pot as well..
So you can solder the loose ground wire to that pot as well..
