My Tele has a very early Bill Lawrence L-500 in it. The wires are: red, black, white & bare. It's wired and working correctly right now. I had the guitar apart looking to replace the bridge pickup with something other than the one that's there now. I can just keep it wired the way it is but it bugs me to not know what other wiring options there are. Currently, the black and bare wires go to ground and the red to the pickup switch. The white one is just taped off. There isn't a green one and no sign of there ever having been one inside the plastic shield.
New Bill Lawrence pickups have red, black, white, green and bare wires so the diagrams for them don't mean much other than for standard wiring, the green and white are connected and insulated. Is it possible that somewhere inside the thing that there is a green wire connected to the white one and the white is to get grounded to run in single coil mode?
Does anyone know what the white wire does or what other combinations there can be? Thanks for any help with this.
