hi, i'm new and coming from france i have ask on differents french discussion but no respons so i try here. i bought a st pro scorpion without eletronics in it so i have to do it myself. i start by shearshing a link about it finaly i found this schematic: if shema 1 is not visible this is the link:http://www.guitarsite.com/hotlicks/about4614.html at home i my case i found a dimarzzio evo2 for the bridge, a seymour duncan sh 1 twang banger for middle, and gfs hum hotrail like for neck, a tone and 3switchs on/on. the little mod hohner vbs desappear and dont exist in the futur schema. i want to put the two humbucker on a master volume push pull to switch them in simple if it needed. so i dont know if i have to put the 3 miniswitch between the volume and the tone or if i can stay like schema 1. if some one can make an wiring diagram with colors i'll be glad thanks for yours respons i hope my english would be good enougth to bee understand....

Wellsir, I fixed the first image link for you. The second was exactly the same, and they were both pointing at a .html web page at the GuitarSite forum. I grabbed the image from the first post, hope that's what you were shooting for.
I'm afraid I'm not completely sure I understand exactly what you're asking for, though. I understand that english is not your first language, but maybe you could try and clarify. Je lis un peu de francais aussi.

balzamo- Hello and Welcome to G-Nutz2!Your English is certainly better than my grade-school French. But let me try to decipher what it is you want. Here's what I got from your post, correct me point-by-point if I get this wrong: - You have this Hohner guitar without any electronics. You want to wire it as an HSH-style, with a twin rails HB in the neck
- You want to use a push/pull potentiometer for a master volume control. The switch is to be used to switch both the neck HB and the bridge HB to single-coil operation (i.e., a coil-cut switch). You did not mention if you already have the P/P pot yet, or not, as it wasn't listed with the other parts you found to use.
- Whatever the Hohner VBS-1 unit was (probably a preamp), it is gone and you won't be using that in your new wiring
- You want to use 3 On-On switches to switch the individual pickups on/off. This will be done as per the diagram you posted.
- There will be a master tone control
- To answer what I think is the question you ask at the end of your post, if you are going to use the P/P pot to cut a coil from each of the HBs, you will wire the P/P switch to the "series junction" of each HB. This wiring is completely separate from the volume and tone controls, so you can wire the on-on switches as per the diagram.

Each of the HBs has 4 wires. One is wired to the switch, another goes to the ground, and the two wires in the middle are soldered together. It is that middle connection, the two wires soldered together, that will be wired to the P/P switch.
I will be happy to do a diagram for you, but it will be next week before I can do it, because I will be out of town for several days and won't have internet access.

Sorry, your English on that part is not understandable. To correct a problem with the GFS pickup, please tell us exactly what you are getting in each of the 4 possible switch positions (P/P and on-on).
The middle SD pickup is a bit tougher to decipher as you have used a different switch. It should work in at least one position of the switch, though. You may have a bad connection there. Or perhaps the switch is bad- did you test it first?

hi i saw that i have orgoten the black wire on the diagram for gfs but not on the guitare. result of the test
1) all switch up no sound it's normal 2) 1er switch for gfs turn down, sound like if it was split, when i pull on the volume normal sound as humbeker. 3) 2d swith up and down, nothing no sound ; the swich is ok but will try with on/on i have to buy one. i test all the position with the wire but nothing. some of the position make sound other coil higher, some else cut the sound.... 4) 3rd switch the dimazzio work correctely
for the gfs if i dont find solution i will try to put it // or reversephasei have to see the sound before. for the sd if the top of the coil touch my string it's sound so is there a ground problem.
