Jimmy Page wiring with volume issues.

[drjinx]

Hey everyone!



I've just wired up my homemade firebird with Jimmy Page wiring using Seymour Duncan pickups, and everything works great except for there is volume bleeding through on 0 on both volume pots. Regardless of which pots are enabled, the volume never goes to absolute 0 and off.



I've checked grounding on everything with the multimeter, and pots are self grounded with grounding going to the bridge, switch, and jack.


Diagram attached, thanks to Newey for showing me how!

Hello and Welcome to G-Nutz2!

To upload an image, use either the "Cloudinary upload" button (on the right at the top of the reply window when you hit "REPLY") or the "postimage" upload button (same place). Our free board software does not allow for hosting of images on our site, they have to be uploaded from another host. The only real difference between these 2 methods is that Cloudinary is more versatile (can be used for more than just images) and probably more permanent/stable a repository, but it requires you to set up a (free) account. Easy enough to do. "Postimage upload" doesn't require an account but is only for images. There is a tutorial in our introductory sub-board called "Harmonious Notes", at the top of the Home page.

First question that came into my mind: Did you use the so-called "50's wiring" of the potentiometers?

Oh thank you!



Why yes I did use the 50s layout, is that where the signals bleeding?
