Control trouble

Post by jblakey »

I am in need of a big favor. I have done some rewiring using the 650 schematics as a guide.
I did change the toggle out to select humbucking at neck or single at neck... this works fine however.
But something is amiss with the volume control.
Could someone draw a wiring diagram (from the back) for the 650 without the toggle so I can check my work before I start taking it apart/buying new pots etc.
I really appreciate it!

Thanks, yeah this is the schematic from which I am working. I am guessing the problem is a bad component.. I've been caught up with holiday things, but tonight I should be getting back to my guitar project.
