Error in wiring diagram 2 HUM, 1 VOL, 1 TONE, 5 WAY BLADE

[kdkevindraper]

Hi,
The wire from vol pot lug 1 is shown connected to tone pot lug 2 - it should go to tone lug 3
Tone lug 3 is shown soldered to the casing - it shouldn't be.
Also the grounding wire from bridge is omitted.

I wired up per the diagram, the sound was really muffled.
After sussing out what was wrong I re-wired and I’m now really happy, my first shot at building a tele gib using swamp ash and Duncan SH-4 and SH-2.
The two single coil positions are useful too.

Welcome to the forum!

There are certainly some errors (and omissions...for clarity?) in several diagrams that have been pointed out. Hopefully these will get sorted out soon. I am happy you figured out what was wrong, and now you have a rockin' guitar.
