I have a 87 MIJ Squier that I want to try the PTB wiring. I have been researching and have come across the attached diagram which doesn't look to hard fro a beginner like me.
How does it look? Any opinions / tips to do this?
Forgive me for what are noob questions but here they are. The diagram doesn't specify but I have seen the pots needed are exactly A250 for volume, A500 for treble and C1M for bass. Why does the bass pot need to be reverse taper?
The guitar is left handed so it came with reverse pots. If I wanted to have the knobs operate in the same direction I am used to, the pots I would need C250K, C500K and A1M, correct? If not the operation will be opposite to what is currently on the guitar? (which isn't really a big deal for me since my left handed Gibson guitars operate opposite of my fenders - it's frustrating, even after all these years, mid-song to reach down and forget which way to turn the volume pot)
On the diagram, what is the ground symbol on the 1M pot? is it just pointing out that it is grounded?
