Neck pickup only audible... again

Re: Neck pickup only audible... again

OP. Don't be put out if somebody says that your soldering is crap. Frankly, it is crap. But I doubt very much that anybody is trying to imply a lack of intelligence so don't take it too personally. Everyone is crap at things that they're new at!

My soldering was crap too when I first started, practice (and better soldering equipment) makes perfect!

Firstly, I didn't do anything with the harness pictured except change the volume terminals (originally, gounds were on the right, pickup connected on left, I switched them). What you see is stock from Epiphone. Secondly, I can't make my iron run hotter. It's non-variable.

Mostly, I find childish *******ry like this unneeded and petty.

Well, judging from the pictures and your response to the people trying their best to help you, shown in the other thread, the problems are, as follows:
1. unability to properly follow a diagram.
2. doubtful soldering skills
3. denial of points 1 and 2.

The only solution I see to that 3rd-world-war-aftermath mess of a wiring of yours is the following:
1. a complete makeover
2. by somebody more skilled than yourself
3. that can actually listen to the good people trying to help
4. follow the proper wiring scheme - http://www.solodallas.com/the-infamous-50s-wiring-d-i-y-tutorial/

PS: you asked!

HTH,
