Here's the switch type.

The pickups are traditional- Lipstick and bridge.  Each pickup has 2 wires each- + & - All other wires are grounds




Thanks for any help

There are other ways, but this is the most common.


You can add a treble bleed also which is nice on the Bridge of a Telecaster.  Check out http://www.stewmac.com/Pickups_and_Electronics/Components_and_Parts/Capacitors_and_Resistors/Golden_Age_Treble_Bleed_Circuit.html

You should of seen the mess I cleaned up. The treble pot wasn't even connected. I'll finish it tomorrow night


Thanks!
