Has anyone got a wiring diagram for this bass? It doesn't appear to be standard PJ wiring as there are three wires coming from the jack socket wired individually to each pot. I'm ok with wiring as long as I have a diagram, but the pics I took aren't good enough.

Thanks

I don't know this bass , if it is a standard output jack, you need only one ground wire and one positive wire.
Passive bass use always same wiring diagram,

Output jack may also use two wires for grounding pots or.....

Picture will help

I got a hefty load of Fender/Squier diagrams on a USB flash (a backup, since they seem to disapear from the web), but not this one...
You could enquire Fender Consumer Relations if they have it - and please provide a link if you get the diagram.

But check & compare the diagram on the VM 70s Jazz, that has the same 2pickups/2vols/1tone combo with multiple wires going to one mono jack.

(Same with the VM Fretless Jazz, btw).

Those wire look to use output jack as another ground terminal.

The image in the link is really bad (same with the pdf I have in the flash drive), and I'm absolutely no wiring guru, but:
Doesn't the image show the white/red/black going to the tip terminal (= hot) of the jack, and the single wire (no color specified) to the sleeve terminal (= ground)?
