I am having problems wiring my EMG pickups correctly. I have never had a problem wiring passive pickups and I was even able to install and 89 in my SG however I cannot get sound out of my Viper when I tried to install an 89 and an 85. It has 1 tone 1 volume and a 3 way switch. The diagram on this page from : localhost/shows a way to wire the tone which I have not seen before (the middle of the volume pot goes to the middle tone terminal with a resistor). On another diagram from : localhost/the wiring seems like the more standard way to wire it. Can someone with wiring experience please review the first way and assure me that it will work; because I have been trying this for a few hours and cannot get sound. The other thing that is strange about the first diagram is the way the hot wire of the 89 is wired. It is different in the 1 vol 1 tone example than the rest. Can someone offer any advice.

Pick Up Dates
Yes I'm a tone geek! But this interests me. Is there anything out there that shows what date each duncan pick up was created? If not, can we get something? Just curious! And bored....

Anyone dealt with ReRanch? I have a Warmoth SG that I'm looking to paint Fender Coppertone Metallic. I'll be finishing it myself since I haven't found a quote that I like (one of the quotes I got to finish the body was $450!!!! That's outrageous!)
