DO NOT SOLDER OR MAKE ANY CONNECTIONS TO ANY OF THE 6 SMALLER PINS ON THE PUSH PULL POTS. BLACK AND WHITE SWITCH LEADS SOLDER TO THE LOWER CENTER LUG OF VOLUME POTS.
I am not using the Seymour Duncan diagram anymore to wire these Jimmy Page rigs. I am wiring up new 50's style 21 Tone Jimmy Page
harness that retains the highs much better when you roll your volumes down. You should have gotten directions for the installation with your new rig. Please feel free to call or email me if you have any questions and I would be more than happy to walk you through it.

Thanks, jonesy

You will need the following tools to be able to install your new wiring properly.

1. pencil style soldering 23-40 watts, I prefer a chisel tip
2. rosin core solder .062" 60/40
3. wire cutters
4. needle nose pliers
5. tape or shrink tube
6. 1/2" nut driver or pliers
7. exacto knife or sandpaper


*epiphones and other import guitars that originally had metric sized pots, will need to have the holes in body enlarged by about 1/16" for new larger US sized pots to fit properly. You can use sandpaper or an exacto knife to do this, be careful not to chip or scratch your top.

1.  Look at your Jimmy Page wiring harness and make sure you know where the volume and tone controls are located and that  it is mounted correctly in your guitar. BV=bridge volume BT=bridge Tone NV=neck volume and NT=neck Tone

2. The "pigtails" are the 3 colored wires (red (no white), black, green) on each side of the JP rig, that you will connect your pu wires to. I have done all the mods and added these wires on for you to make it easier for you to connect your pu wires to. They are still color coded for Seymour Duncan pickups

3. * Look at the color code chart and match up your brand of wiring to match the JP wiring.  The Diagram & Wiring are all colored coded for Seymour Duncan pu's.

EXAMPLE: SO THAT MEANS SEYMOUR DUNCAN COLORS = DIMARZIO COLORS
Harness  pigtails       Dimarzio pickup leads
Black =                   Red
(White) = none          Black>
Red =                     White>
Green =                   Green

                                
Harness pigtails         Gibson pickup leads
Black =                    Red
(White) = none           White>
Red =                      Green>
Green =                    Black
                                       

Note Series Links are tied together on all brands of pickups.
On Seymour Duncans red & white get tied together, On Dimarzio black & white are tied together and on Gibson white & green get tied together. The Series link goes to the red pigtail on the Jimmy Page rig regardless of pickup brand.

Use the color code chart to find the correct color codes for other brands of pickups.

4. Following diagram carefully and make all connections as shown, connecting your pu's,

5. If you have an extra bare wire from each pickup that is a ground wire and goes to the back and solders to the case of each volume pot, BV & NV

SWITCH WIRE CONNECTIONS

1. Green Ground wire from switch goes to the back of the bridge volume pot, BV

2. Red Hot lead from switch goes to hot/tip on input jack. (ground from input is already soldered to case of BT)

3. Black wire from switch solders to lower center lug on BV and the White wire from switch solders to lower center lug on NV.
DO NOT Solder to any of the 6 small pins on push pull pots.

4. Ground wire (bare) from inside cavity that comes from tail piece studs solders to the back of the NV case (neck volume)
