GM Arts/SD jag-stang schematic mod

degeus

Hey you,

I have a Jag-Stang dated around 2002, been lying around doing nothing for the last 2 years and I decided I am going to sell it.

The modded schematic is a very interesting mod. We finished soldering yesterday, but the guitar won't respond.

Does anyone know if this schematic is 100% working/correct? Any experience with it?

Thanks for reading, greets Rowan.

Other changes:

-New Vintage Kluson tuners from Jazzmaster

-New Volume/Tone knobs from Jaguar HH

-New Mustang bridge

Did you ground the switch casings like in the diagram? They need to be grounded and lead back the main grounds.

I just found out we accidentally soldered the yellow wire to the switch casing as well.

Going to give it another try later this week.

Thanks for your reply!

Even if you did that you should still be getting the bridge pup working.

Its not that the casings need grounding so much, its more that this diagram uses the casings as a place to connect grounds, then you need to ground the casings to the main grounds to complete the circuit.

If you made one mistake you likely made more so just go over your work carefully.

Well, I finally decided to take it to a pro. 50 minutes and $50 of soldering later we were ready to go. Awesome schematic!! Installed the orange drop, sounds great!

Lets sell this piece of guitar 😁
