Wiring diagrams and schematics

Now there is plenty to do with two humbuckers, volume and tone. Easy way is of course to google around. Seymour Duncan has the easiest aroung. Schematics are clean and easy to understand.
Of course we are using here Artec-pickups, so we need to fiddle a bit. But first lets have a look at the one that I decided to use.

It uses a super-5-way-switch. It has way more lugs to solder. These can be expensive.

Now here this fiddle part. Colors go like this in Artecs.











With Seymour Duncans they go like this:

With this piece of information from MyLespaul.com, I came in to conclusion, that wires are as in SD but Black is Green in Artecs.

I also wanted to put some easy mods here.
TrebleBleed helps to keep sound fresh when turning volume down:

Parts were easily available here, 1.50$:

Capacitor for the tone was 0.50$
I had to choose it blind as I'm not familiar with the pickup. These are easy and relatively cheep to change afterwards.

Deciding what value would be best is very well explained here on PremierGuitar.com site:

Last thing that were missing from this build was potentiometers. Usually 250k with singlecoils and 500k with humbuckers. In Gibsons they have 300k in stock. Beefier sound that is.
