I seldom reach out for help to anyone, but this is one I can't do alone: I've changed the pickups in my 75 Bluesbird enough times that I just want to get it back in operation for some recording. I'm refitting it with DP 103s, which I've had in there before, and I really liked them.
My question is this: I have two sets of instructions to go by - the first is the only wiring diagram I can find for a 75 Bluesbird, with phase switch and master volume. The second is the set of instructions from DiMarzio showing how to wire 4- conductor pickups - 1 set for wiring series, and another for wiring parallel. Each makes use of a different set of colored wires. My guess is to prep them for series then do the job using the diagram, which I will attach.
Does anyone know whether it's supposed to be series or parallel in this guitar? Once I know that I should be able to use the diagram without problems. I've got all the gear coming from StewMac and plan to go with DiMarzio's series instructions. Their instructions for wiring in a phase switch are a little different than the Guild diagram.
