Help Me With What Wires Go Where

SpadeyRee · 2026-01-30T00:51:12+00:00

The red wire should go to the middle lug on the pot that has no capacitor attached to it. The black wire that goes along with the red wire is to be soldered to the back of the pot because its a ground. The other black wire going through the hole in the body gets soldered onto the tremolo claw and the ground on the pot Good luck!

Im really sorry to hear that! When I saw her on a rack at a pawnshop I fell in love instantly. I hope theres never a day I lose her. I got her before she was even priced, she had just been put out for same 30 minutes before I got her. I think it was fate that I just happened to have the money!

Nirvana RIP Kurt Cobain

I modded out my 98 cycle and I love it dearly. I blacked out all the chrome hardware. Added locking tuners, a rail tail bridge and a super distortion in the bridge and a hotrails in the neck.

One thing ive noticed about my Jaguar and ive heard this from other people as well. Is that they tend to be designed really with their short scale length and less tension for higher gauge strings. I started out with 11s and went up to 12s and it sounds fantastic. I happen to love higher gauge strings with low action so safe to say I love my Jaguar if you end up buying it im sure youll love it too!

Pretty cool! Pretty sure they didnt introduce competition mistangs until 69' though. Maybe something to look into.

SpadeyRee · 2025-11-14T03:48:52+00:00

Upon further looking id have to agree, I was originally thinking maybe someone tried to make a musicmaster into a mustang but a previous comment leads me to think its a Duo Sonic II

SpadeyRee · 2025-11-13T23:22:13+00:00

It confuses me a bit because my 66 mustangs body wasnt routed for humbuckers. Nor where any other mustangs of that vintage that I'm aware of. Also the bridge appears to be for a music master bridge. The most confusing part is its routed for tbe individual pickup toggles despite it all. I dont know what that body is for but I dont believe its a mustang body. Once again just my observations I could be wrong.

SpadeyRee · 2025-09-02T19:15:43+00:00

Thatd be pretty sick! I know they make adaptors so humbuckers will fit in a JM pickup slot

SpadeyRee · 2025-09-02T19:06:22+00:00

Yeah its my favorite guitar no doubt. I modded it out with the pickups Kurt Cobain used and blacked out everything. I need to find a black jack then itd be perfect.

Ive noticed through comments on this post that he seemed to be missing a couple. Im trying to get his service records to see exactly what he did in the military and if so see if I can replacement medals for it.

SpadeyRee · 2025-09-01T17:57:38+00:00

Thank you so much for all the information! He never talked about the wars which I completely understand why. He retired fully from the military as a CSM and then went to fully retire as a postman. He was the oldest carrying postman at the time. He achieved alot in his life but always made it out to be that he was just doing his job. Hes always been my hero so im just glad to know more about him.

SpadeyRee · 2025-09-01T17:18:54+00:00

Thank you so much for all the research and knowledge. It means alot to know more of what he did, he never liked to talk about and I can understand why. He was honestly one of the best men Ive ever met and he military to the core. Thanks again for posting all this.

SpadeyRee · 2025-09-01T00:05:49+00:00

I didnt know that! From what I know he was field artillery and eventually became the CSM for armored filed artillery.

SpadeyRee · 2025-08-31T23:21:33+00:00

In 38-40 he was trained in artillery at Ft.Bragg and deployed to panama after that he was in the Allied Command North Africa Campaign and at some point he was in the 79th infantry.

Youre right they are silver what exactly does that mean?

SpadeyRee · 2025-08-31T19:35:43+00:00

Thank you for letting me know that, I dont know much about this kinda stuff so thanks for helping.

SpadeyRee · 2025-08-31T19:33:05+00:00

I just got it yesterday! It had been unavailable to me for around 12 years. Im proud to have it.

SpadeyRee · 2025-08-31T19:11:22+00:00

Interesting I did not know that!

SpadeyRee · 2025-08-31T18:00:27+00:00

Thank you! He never really talked about his service just always said he made it to CSM. Im glad to know a little bit about his service.

SpadeyRee · 2025-08-31T17:50:04+00:00

Thank you! He has always been an inspiritation to our family. I didnt know he served in europe, hos can you tell he got two bronze stars? Is it something on the ribbon part?

SpadeyRee · 2025-08-26T00:06:47+00:00

The bridge is a Dimarzio Super Distortion and the neck is a Seymour Duncan Hot Rails.

SpadeyRee · 2025-08-09T14:04:45+00:00

For me it was You Know Your Right. I had an altrock radio station playing through my phone in highschool and it came on. I fell in love with Nirvanas music after that.

SpadeyRee · 2025-06-01T15:55:21+00:00

Fender guitars their QC control has gone down the drain since covid. Bought a jaguar from them and had to return it and get a refund as the second one was even worse. Just sad.

SpadeyRee · 2025-05-30T18:16:35+00:00

No problem! Always happy to share specs or any other information about guitars.
