Fender Robben Ford wiring?

[frank0936]

I would like to wire my Squier Esprit with the splitter switch, but there isn't a wiring diagram here for 2HB' 2 vol, 2 tone, 3 way' splitter switch. I have the Fender wiring diagram, but the wiring colors are different. Can anyone help me out?
TIA
Frank

If you post the diagram, we can do the conversion.

Looks like the diagram didn't make it. Let's try again:


Thanks,

I'm using a JB in the bridge and a Jazz in the neck position.

The SD website has a diagram showing the different colour codings.

Thanks. I didn't see it, but I'll look again.

That's no help at all. It shows all the pickup wiring colors as red, white, green and black. The Fender wiring colors are white, brown, yellow and green.

The issue is that the color names in that picture are hard to read.
Can you please say for each pickup, which color goes to where, to be able to map those fenders to seymour duncan ones?.

If you PM me I'll give you the email of my tech/luthier; he's done two Esprits for me this way (one with Ibanez Super 58's...the other has SD59's).

Okay, thanks. The Duncans have 4 wires plus a ground wire. The Fender only shows 4 wires, and it's only the neck pickup that I am concerned with for now. On the Fender neck pickup:
White grounds to the volume pot
Brown goes to the volume pot lug.
Green and yellow go to the same lug on the splitter switch.
Thanks again.

It appears to me like you do this:



Note that on both pickups, green and white stay where they are.
Yellow becomes black, and brown becomes red.

Make sense?

That looks good to me. Thanks a lot for the help.
