 Would really appreciate if someone could help me with this. I just need it because I made the mistake of taking one of the gold foils out and replacing it with a filtertron and I just want the gold foil back in it now but I cant remember how it was wired up. |

Here's a diagram for a Teisco E-200, the so-called "Tulip-body" Teisco: guitarnuts2.proboards.com/thread/6271/teisco-200-wiring The Tulip-body guitars came a year or so later than yours, say 1968-1969 or so, and I'm not sure that yours would have been wired the same, but I believe most 2-pickup Teisco guitars were wired this way, which put both pickups in series when both are on together. |

My Teisco MJ-2L is different from that.
It has the Pickups switched to ground when off, and the signal is passed through 50k isolation resistors before joining at the output jack (so one pickup's switch does not kill the other pickup's signal). So in that case they are in parallel. My MJ-2L also has volume and tone separate for each pickup (tone wired to operate backwards, which Teisco did).
That Lynx is a very nice looking guitar!

Blademaster2-
The one I posted is the only Teisco diagram we have in our OEM wiring diagram repository, so if you have a diagram for your Teisco model, please post it there for future reference by others.
needy-
So, if Teisco used multiple wiring schemes, we may need more info on your guitar to determine things. Did you alter the switch wiring when you swapped the pickup, apart from what was needed to connect the new pickup? If not, some photos showing what type of switches are in there, and how it was wired until the change may help.
Another option might be the Teisco Twangers website, the guys there might have some info on the wiring of your particular guitar.
EDIT: Scratch that thought, it looks like that site is now archival only, and the only posted wiring is for an MJ-2L like Blademaster2's.

The one I posted is the only Teisco diagram we have in our OEM wiring diagram repository, so if you have a diagram for your Teisco model, please post it there for future reference by others. The one you posted is a binary switching scheme, as posted by wolf as a suggested improvement -- original thread here. However in your OP you linked a thread from VintAxe and an image from the poster's blog (CloudyProject) both links are now defunct, but the the VintAxe one just needs a tweak and the blog page can be found on the WaybackMachine. (I'll go and add those links to your post in the original thread.) |

My mistake on the diagrams, but I pulled wolf's diagram from the OEM schematics sub-board, so that needs correction as well. In the thread discussing this with wolf, he said that his improvement (using the binary tree switching to give parallel) would be preferable to having an "all off" setting. But as I look at this (weird) scheme, I'm not seeing an "all off" setting. I see as follows: Both switches to the left (as on diagram) gives both pickups in series. Both switches to the right gives bridge pup on, neck pup shorted. N switch to left, Br switch to right gives neck pup on, bridge pickup shorted. N switch to right, Br switch to left gives neck shorted, Bridge on. So, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm seeing 2 "bridge on" positions rather than an "all off". Anyway, here's the diagram, so we can discuss it.  |

Both switches to the right gives bridge pup on, neck pup shorted. One of us must be missing something, but if we’re actually talking about the diagram included in this post, then from what I’m seeing, flipping the bottom switch to the right shorts the bridge no matter what the other switch does, and both to the right actually connects all four (six including shields) pickup wires together. It also shorts the “top” of the V pot to ground so that at least when that knob is all the way up, the Jack is shorted for a true silent off position. |

No, you're right, for some reason I just couldn't see that. Just weird wiring I guess.
