This is one of the most thorough and understandable soldering tutorials I've ever seen.

Very clear and informative, thank you!👍👍👍
Here is a good tip. When soldering any pot, turn the potentiometer's shaft all the way to the OFF position (fully CW or CCW). By doing so before soldering you protect the fragile carbon resistor strip from damage from high heat/over-heating. If by chance there is damage it will be at the extreme travel of the wiper-arm/carbon strip. Basically, if it gets damaged better to have the damage occur at the extreme ends instead of in the middle of the operational area.
Holy smokes. I never had a 15 minute tutorial go so fast. Thanks
Just saved me $80 on my Ibanez SDGR bass. Plus however much it would’ve cost me to do any other time I needed this one wire resoldered. A like and a sub was a negligible price to pay.

Got it first try too 🎉
I'm doing the wiring on my first build and this video was incredibly helpful to me. Thank you so much! No other video went into the details that aren't very intuitive to me as well as this one did.
Excellent tutorial with great macro photography. Thanks.
Thank you. This has been the best video on soldering for guitars that I have ever seen on KZread. Top Notch!
Your video helped me fix my bass on my own and I'm very grateful for the time you spent putting this together.

I'm ordering a soldering iron now. I'm excited to be able to play my bass again.
I've soldered, many times. Installed a bunch of pickups. However, I didn't realize quite how terrible/half assed my approach was. That is, until I stumbled on this gem of a video. Thanks dude. Much appreciated 🤌🏻🙏🏻🤘🏻
This is such a great instructional for soldering. Between the closeups and detailed instruction (that’s lacking in every other instructional I’ve seen), this is, by far, the best.
Isopropyl alcohol also assists at the end to remove any residual flux and leave a shiny solder finish result. Thanks again for your video
Excellent. Thank you.
I have watched a fair few soldering tutorials on guitar soldering and this is perfect, the best, clear instructions and most importantly very clear and close up camera work. Well done.
I really wish this video had been available all the times I soldered new pickups in. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. The only consistent thing about my soldering work was the white-hot rage I was filled with by the end.
Love the wood jig
Thanks for the help! Loved the recap at the end!
Excellent video. Thank you!

Very good presentation. Nice job, thanks.
One additional "trick": when soldering the ground to pots take care to keep the solder blob away from interesting lettering, you might want to be able to read the value easily later when repairing it...

It’s a good thing the value is on the opposite side of the pots, then…

I love you mate. Really, what a gem of a video. Just an observation, do not tangle the 2 wires @13:00. I've heard it's of no use and makes it more difficult to undo them if needed.
Awesome video, thanks!

Another tip is to score or scuff the back of the pot with some sandpaper to help the solder stick to it

Extra flux always helps especially with rework of used components and larger surfaces. Fibre pen abrasion to remove corrosion can also assist solder to flow.
