4005 Wiring

Hi gang,
With the recent arrival of a new Toaster pickup I can finally get my 67 4005 up and running...someone had installed Barts in it and then someone else had replaced the Barts with re-issue toasters...one of the re-issues didn't work properly when I got the bass, and so now I'm ready to go. I really don't think that too much was changed in the Bart mod electric wise (although they did rout the body a little, ARGHHH!!!) Anyway I was hoping that one of you 5 owners could post a closeup picture or drawing of the pickguard wiring so that I can make sure that mine hasn't been re-wired incorrectly. I'm lousy with the schematic diagrams... Much appreciated, Thanks, David Miner

I've got nothing, David, or else I would helo you out. How easy is it to get a pic of the controls on a 4005, must have to take a pickguard off, right?

Thanks anyway Steve...Yes, you have to unscrew the guard... you just pull 6-7 screws and there it is. Dm

Is that a treble-pass cap behind the large labeled capacitor?

I zoomed in and it sure likes like a component. Kinda greenish.

Guys,

I admit not to know much about the 4005’s.

Since I have the picture posted above, what do you see that’s not original for a 1967.

I haven't opened mine in a long time, but I know there should not be "THE CAP"! Mine does not have the fifth control, instead there is a Ric-O-Sound jack in it's place.

GREAT...A MILLION THANKS...between the pic and the schematic I should be able to figure it out...And Dave...sorry, that's my old email address and I can't seem to change it in my profile editor...could you please re-send the jpeg to me at [email protected]. Again, thanks, I knew you guys would come through...dminer

Dave,if you need a focused look at the schematic check out the RIC.website under service you will see guitar schematics.Good luck

Certainly looks like the cap there. The 60's ones are that turquoise colour.
As ever, a picture is worth a thousand worth...

My '65 4005 doesn't have the 5th knob either and has the mono jack too.

Really! Is it factory stock? Mine looks to be stock, with the Ric-o-Sound jack where the fifth knob should be and the normal mono jack in it's usual place.
