What is the best way to wire the CAPS - on the HOT side of pots or to ground? Seymour Duncan schematic shows it wired to the HOT side of the volume knobs but a schematic on stewmac.com showed the CAPS wired on the ground Pin ... if anyone can shed a little light on this that would be great!

Re: Need Help wiring CAPS
I don't think it matters. You can connect the tone control to the volume control with the cap like Gibson did or mount the cap on the back of the tone pot like Fender.
If you use shielded cable, like I do, for all of your connections in the control cavity, you kinda have to put the cap on the back of the pot.

Mr. Lew, how did you ever end up in a 16-year old thread? Just catching up on old mail? :boggled:

Re: Need Help wiring CAPS
I've been doing a lot of pickup swapping and wiring the last couple of months, after taking a few years off and concentrating on the acoustic guitar.
Must have been been searching for some info, and didn't notice the age of the thread when it popped up.
