4001 Rick wiring

Post by wings012345 »

Hey all, any one have pics of they're 4001 wiring which shows the wirng to the pickups and jack switches. My bass was wired so that the ric- o sound jack went to the neck pickup only and the Standard went to the bridge pickup. Buddy of mine is good with schematics and is going to help fix, just thought if anyone had some snapshots that would help more.

Thanks

Don't forget Joey's Bass Notes too. I don't know about photos, but he has great schematic stuff.

Who can read that? All those damn lines and triangle zags. It's a bit like trying to read musical theory. Diminished minors, ( sounds like my first year as a music student.. :lol: )...augmented Ionian...What? Should I beam up now Scottie... :)

People want to see where things go. Red wire this pot, green wire switch...
Now, where DO I put my fingers on this **** Cmaj9 chord.... :lol:

This is from my '73 FG 4001 with a red wire bypassing the .0047µf cap.
