I have a Duff McKagan? Style Bass Body that i was given to me. I am unsure if this is actually the case but according to the only pics i could find on the web, but the duff mckagan model is the closest match to the body i have. right down to the cover plate on the back of the body.

I am currently in the process of refinishing the neck and body and cannot find the correct wiring diagrams. i am confident i can effectively solder the connections but seeing as i recieved the wiring in a ziplock bag i dont know what goes to what.

The wiring/hardware is as follows:

Two body Pickups, one bridge pickup, three volume or tone knobs, one three way switch. there is no spot for a 9v battery, nor is there any type of circut board.

I reallize that there is a good chance that this may not even be a fender product or a licensed aftermarket replacement but again it is a strat style body with a tapered area on the bottom left.

so in short :D If anyone has any suggestions on where to find the info or has the time to look at a photo and perhaps help me identify, help would greatly be appreciated.[img][img=http://img329.imageshack.us/img329/4688/img0937iv8.th.jpg]

Welcome to the forum!
You can use this diagram , but it does not include a pickup selector switch . You can connect the switch in between one of the wires from each of the pickups to the potentiometer ,and remember that if the switch is three-way , means when its in the mid position both pickups should sound, and when its in any other position only one of the pickups should sound . Towards the front the neck pickups sounds, towards the rear the bridge pickup sounds. If in doubt , take it to a specialist!
