OK I put the 59/JB in my Hollowbody, sounds great. In case you all arn't aware the 59-neck sounds much better in 251/2 scale neck-guitars. With the Gibson 243/4 scale or with 24 fret necks it just isn't as good IMHO. But on Fender scale! Man that 59 is GREAT. Anyway the pups I pulled were Duncan Design 102 Humbuckers, which are suppose to be 59/JB. They are about 80%, not 95 like they claim. THE QUESTION. The DD's I pulled, I want to use in a Double Fat Squire I just bought. The neck on the Squire is flawless, which is why I bought the guitar 80bucks used? But I figure I'll drop these in they are F-Spaced, but have 4-wires for coil-splitting. The Squire just has the two, Black and White, Hot and Ground. WHAT WIRES DO I CONNECT TO THE BLACK AN WHITE from the Duncans? The DD's are the samr color code as the 59/JB I just installed. Do I just use the hot and ground, and tape off the others, or is there another wire I have to use? Thanks for the info guys. I wish I knew this forum was here years ago. Man it would have saved time and dollars.
Hi,
If you are just doing standard wiring, no split, etc, then you want to solder the red and wire wires together then wrap them, insulate them, with some electrical tape. Then the black wire is hot, and the green and bare wires are soldered to ground.
badco has it exactly right
No I don't want to split. Standard wiring, now what do the white go to and what do the black go to? Sorry I didn't understand that thread!
on the duncan designed, you solder the red wire and the white wire together, then wrap the solder joint in electrical tape - this wont get soldered anywhere else, just stuff it carefully into the cavity ... you solder the green and bare wires to ground (e.g. back of a volume pot), and you use the black wire as hot (switch)
this will give you standard wiring, no splits
you do not use the squire wiring at all
better?
