I can’t find a wiring diagram for this kit. Can anyone help?
Hi Alpal,
the wiring diagram will be the TL-1 wiring diagram for 2 pickups, Volume, Tone and 3-way switch. It can be found at https://www.pitbullguitars.com/wp-co...f/PBG-TL-1.pdf.
The wiring diagrams on the PB site were accurate at the time they were created, I think, but they don't always reflect the current offerings. Yours may be a case in point.
The one that TD is pointing you to should work for a pre-wired "normal" telecaster where the switch, and both pots are already screwed onto the control plate and partially pre-wired. It's not showing you the pre-wired connections, and maybe not a couple of the ground connections since the pots and switch are mounted onto a metal control plate, so a separate ground wire may not be necessary for them.
I don't know how much of yours came pre-wired, but I am pretty sure that those kits come with an integrated plastic pickguard/control plate.
You may want to use a wiring diagram like this one:
Attachment 45905
...which shows you the connections that may be pre-wired as well as those that are not, and it also shows all the ground wires which are kind of optional on a traditional Tele, but more important when controls are mounted on a plastic pickguard.
