I need help. i have a vintage noiseless pickups set. The bridge pickup doesn´t have the same volume as the other pickups. The old owner told me i have to install a different potentiometer. I need to know what type of potentiometer i have to install and how to install it. please, i'd really appreciate it if someone could help me and send me the vintage noiseless schematics. I've looked in the fender website and couldn't find it. Some links i've found in the forum are broken. thank you very much, and please make me a happy fender owner.

I think the Vintage Noiseless set require 1meg pots for the volume and both tone controls. IIRC these new pots are included when you buy a stand-alone VN pickup set from Fender.

i´m not the first owner of this guitar, the previous owner only gave me the pickups without the correct pots, so i'm trying to get the diagram of the wiring. The first owner made a modification and i want to reset the vintage noiseless configuration. So please help me.

One of the kits is for VN.

Wiring can be done multiple ways.

There are many "wiring diagrams".
Do a 'google" search on pickup wiring and you'll have all you want!
