Wiring push/push pot and Soldering Kit Question..

[jclogston]

Hi everyone -
Just a quick question.
I just received a jazz neck that i want to install in my guitar. I also want to replace my push/pull pot with a push/push.
I think i want to try it myself as i do want to pay another $60 to get this done.

Does this kit contain everything i need?

Also, would the wiring be the same for the push/push pot as the push/pull pot?

thanks

Yes, the wiring is the same for both pots. That kit should get you there (you'll still need to buy wire, obviously.

Hi -
So i didn't pickup the kit mentioned above - i have screwdrivers, pliers, wire cutters, etc.....
Just picked up a 30-watt soldering iron (comes with stand, solder, clamp), some solder (60/40) resin core, and a desoldering bulb - all for $13.
Gonna play around soldering some wires together and what not before trying to swap my pickups out as I have never soldered before.
Hopefully by the end of the weekend, my guitar will be up and running....
