Wiring P-Rails to Emerson Custom Pots

[JSimon]

Hey everyone. First time posting so be nice if it has already been covered.
I have been searching everywhere on the web and on this forum and can't find the correct way to wire my P-Rails to the Emerson Custom prewired pots in my Les Paul with push pulls.

The wiring diagrams for the P-Rails shows soldering to 6 different tabs on the Tone pots. My Emerson Pots only have 3 tabs per pot.

Anyone have a suggestion how I should wire these? I've tried contacting Emerson Custom but I've never received a reply to my email. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Welcome to the forum!

I have to look those up...I've never used them before. It would be super easy to use the Triple Shot rings, though. What do those pots do in your guitar now? Do you have the pickups with the quick connect system?

Thanks Mincer!
You would think that I wouldn't have to add more parts to the equation. Should be as simple as soldering A to A and B to B but it's not. I'm surprised Emerson hasn't gotten back to me but I guess they figure it's more of a SD issue.
Right now I get great tone with the toggle switch in either the neck or bridge pickup but there is no change with the the push/pulls in or out. If you need a photo of the push/pull pot I can get one tomorrow.

No quick connect setup either.

Give us a pic of the backside of the emerson wiring, where we can see the lugs.
