    50’s Gibson/335 wiring

    Hi all

    Haven’t been around the forum for a while so hope you are all groovy.

    Doing my take on a Memphis 335 and basically anything I could have done wrong, I have. But hopefully I’ve learned a few things.

    I followed a YouTube video on wiring a 335 style hollow body, using braided wire (ie the outside braiding was used to ground all the pots with the inner hot for the bridge pot).

    Tried a tap test but unfortunately nothing. The wiring diagram on PB is for modern wiring (ie caps on tone pots) but I did the 50’s style (ie capacitor from vol to tone).

    Can anyone suggest some trouble shooting options/reference materials to review? I have a basic multimeter.

    I’ve done my best to photo.

    Cheers and thanks in anticipation.
