Beautifully done! Thank you.

This video is already the best thing I've stumbled on this year. I've got a Gibson LP laying around all stripped for 2+ years. After 2 failed soldering attempts I just gave up. This video forces me to give it another go. The curse is broken

Forgot to leave a comment. I followed this exactly for my P/J bass (not too different) and it turned out amazing. I can't believe I managed this on my first soldering project. Great teaching and insight. Thank you!

this is exactly why i watched this video, and I also knew this would work for my PJ. I mean this is definitely the best quality video out there, but I also want to ask either you or six string supplies if the no loads potentiometer's capacitor is wired in the same fashion as in the video.

I was saving every wiring and soldering video I could find before attempting this on my bass. I stopped watching videos after seeing this. It’s exactly what I needed and explained very clearly. This is the only video I’m saving for my bass maintenance playlist. Thanks

I already did a Stratocaster with the help of your video. Now I'm gonna rewire a Squier Jazz Bass with upgraded components. The most clean and well described videos I've ever seen on wiring instruments. Thank You!

Excellent Video. I've been saying SOL-DER since my dad taught me how to at age 10, now 70+ and still working in electronics. Broadcast engineer for 45 + years and I'm always correcting the young ones in the industry who say SOD-DER - hahaha. Your video was well planned out and I liked the fact that you could see every aspect of the project. Thank you for the time and effort you put into it. - Vince.

I really appreciate your patience taking us through every step here. Very clear, skipping nothing. Thanks very much :)

Such a tidy job! Thank you for taking your time to share this with us.

This has to be the best work ever done on a jazz bass.! Love it#

Thanks for this - I just finished a complete pick-up and control replacement on my bass, following along with the video - really clear and helpful

That's a super clean job there 👍, I'm about to change the pots and wiring on my jazz tonight.

Thank you so much for this!! Just redid my bass after many years of neglect. NOTE TO LEFTIES! You can follow this but just flip horizontally, I did that and controls came out exactly how they used to be.

Brings back memories of re wiring my lefty Strat watching right handed videos… instant headache lol!

Thanks Again!! 1st you helped me wire my Precision, now you've helped me with my Jazz, Thank-You very much for posting this, Basses sound great!!

Excellent - good workmanship & high standards for us all to adopt. I FINALLY realise why cloth-insulated wire is so useful! 😊.

Really nice work. Thank you for your clarity.

This was awesome, very useful! To anyone doing this on an early 60s Fender bass, just be aware the body cavity route can be super narrow, and it can rub against those side grounds... ;-) (Shame I can't post pics...)

You are a big polla for repair it, I will make the same with my jazz bass, my bass have a terrible noise when I connect to my ampli, thanks man you’re great

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Ran your clip while i wired up my J Bass build. Thanks again

Oh...this is very, very helpful. Exactly what I needed. Thank you.

That was a great video, and a very tidy job. Well done!!

thank you sooo much! had some 77 j bass trouble and decided to re-solder the whole thing.

Beautiful. My Jazz bass came stock with split pots. Of course one of them broke. This video will prove helpful. Thank Tchik Guitars for sending me.

On point. Super clean work!

I realized by this video that my Jazz was wired wrong. I corrected it and it sounds a bit cleaner and fuller. Thank you!!

best tutorial on how to do this ever,been wanting to wire my own since I got my jb and the tone pot is not working,subbed!

Let it cool naturally. Great job brother.

Excellent tutorial. Thank you brother.

Nice job! I clean the back of the pots and can scratch them a bit to enhance adhesion. Also, can put on a bit of flux to enhance flow and no "blob" effect.

Best video in its kind.. Very clean , Well done mate..

Just purchased from you all components to redo my jazz, looking forward to the postman’s delivery so I can follow this video. You make it look so easy 👍🏻

This video will never age!

I prefer linear pots for volume. Nice video!!!

Amazing video and description of the process! I just followed this video, step by step (pausing as needed) , and just assembled my JB wiring kit so easily. Just curious, your linked diagram mentions not needing to run the ground from pot to pot if you're using the jazz bass metal plate, but you don't mention that in the video. Is that really the case? You also don't mention where to attach the bridge ground in the video, but it's in the diagram you linked. Regardless, THANK YOU for this video. I'm a complete newbie to soldering, but you gave so many tips it was so easy. I never could have done this without it!

Thank you for this Really appreciate Could you please do a video on how to wire the pickups to it

Great video. It's clear enough that I've made the leap to order a pack and do this. For the grounding wire you mentioned briefly that it could be done with the cloth wire provided in the pack. Does this have to be one continual wire like you've done here or because of the cloth you do seperate wires between each pot?

very good thanks.

Outstanding!!!

Great tutorial, have you done the wiring for a pre '62 Jazz bass with 2 concentric pots? I want to understand some comments about adding resistors. Thank you!

Thank you man...

thanks - learnt lots of good shit and how much I didnt know. Well done.

Yeah, I got a bass given to me that had a massive rats nets of the cheapest plastic coated wire ans it was all full of cold solder joints and general nastiness inside and I hate the pots aren't on a plate or in a straight line like this one is. It's been an absolute bear to disassemble and re-wire to the point that I am bored with working on the bass and will probably sell it when I get done rewiring it. I almost wanna say it wasn't really done correctly from the factory because whoever was tasked with wiring it gave up on trying to get it done neatly

This is awesome

@SixStringSupplies For a Lefty Jazz bass, would I just do the wiring backwards and do I need to get pots for a lefty as well??? Very clean job by the way :3

Thank u so much!!!

Just a question. My pickup wires are colored red and blue. I wonder which one's the ground? Btw, great teaching! I'm excited to start working on my bass guitar. Will replace the old rusty pots and wires. :)

Great videos. Could you please do one on wiring an Explorer. 2 v 1 tone.

Excellent, as ever! Just makes me want to re-wire everything….!😂😂🎸🎸🍷🍷

Thanks for this super clear video. Though I seem to have one problem: both my pickups got TWO wires going to the pots...

Me too, that's why I'm here. Not exactly sure, but it seems that it might be an extra ground from the pickup sheilding

Thanks!

Hello, I´m replacing all my Maya jazz Bass electronics and pickups and the holes between pickups and the pot area is very narrow. Can I remove the original pickup cables (those ones soldered to the pickup surface) and put another narrower ones? Thanks, I like your videos!!

How would this be different if I were to use a stereo jack instead of a mono jack? I'm trying to have each pickup go to separate amps. Would I need a second tone knob?

good afternoon. what would happen if I used a pot less than 250 k? thanks. your video is very helpful.

Best Video on youtube? What wire gauge would you recommend? Tx!

I grow bolder when my solder is colder. Older folks like Polka.

Can you do a video wiring a Jazz Bass similar to a Rickenbacker bass? I'm primarily interested in the dual output jacks feature. I'm thinking of modifying a Jazz but without a toggle switch. Many thanks.

VBT wiring procedure for Jazz Bass? Many thanks

I knew my jazz base was wired incorrectly. You made it right!

I have a newbie question: I appear to have a dead bridge pickup or pot but then realized there is no ground wire running to the bridge... this maybe be an obvious answer but is that why my bridge pickup/pot is dead? I was under the impression the ground to the bridge was for noise reduction... is it necessary for the pickup/pot to function?

Six String Supplies stuff seems to be really good quality. I stripped the electrics out of an 1990s Epiphone Les Paul and they looked very cheap and low quality compared to the rig from these guys that replaced it all. Also, they don't charge the earth, either (no pun intended). I shopped around and good ol' Six String Supplies offered the best quality at the best prices AND they gave me a quick call on my mobile before dispatching my '50s style wiring harness to confirm my preferences. How many companies do THAT!?

brilliant at last. I bought 20 cts pots and the range went from 201 to 286. Would you explain the differnce between audi and linear and what is the benefit of no load. Please?

@SixStringSupplies

5 жыл бұрын

Hi wow that is quite a range, though most CTS pots are made to 20% tolerance. The basic differences are outlined here: www.sixstringsupplies.co.uk/audio-or-linear-pots

Thanks dude. Got a bass today, bits missing .

Question: can you do almost the same thing with a single active pickup?
