Yeah... so I sorta have a project guitar going on right now, but the problem is that I don't know how to wire it. The setup will be pretty basic, one pickup, a volume nob, and the thing that you plug the cable into(the jack or something maybe? I'm bad at guitar vocab). Any links or help or anything that will help me because I really want to finish it. Thanks in advance!

Not meaning to be a smart *ss, but have you googled it? Guitar wiring diagrams are pretty plentiful on the internet.

yeah, i have googled it, but all the wiring diagrams never make much sense and don't match what I'm trying to do.

I found one on the seymour-duncan page, and I'm going to try that out later today. Thanks!

what you need to do is just google up some basic wiring explanations and circuitry lessons,just something basic to read through to give you an idea what each symbol represents,what each part does,how circuits work etc. and then have a look at www.guitarelectronics.com its got just about every wiring diagram you'll ever need,all well drawn out.and btw,are you only using one pickup because you want to?or do you just want to keep it simple to make?
