G'day guys,

I have an american deluxe tele with the s1 switch and im looking at putting in a bareknuckle pickup in the neck. Trouble is the new pickup has 2 wires and the old one has 3... Im a bit confused coz it seems to have an earth running to a pot then another earth running to the s1.

If this is the case where do i connect the earth from the new pickup to?

cheers~!

I am no expert on the S1 switching system so I don't know if this works or not but it is the only wiring diagram for a Tele with S1 that I could find at my usual places.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

I absolutely am no electronics wizard on guitars, but would either of these be of help:
AmDlx Ash 010-1702 Diagram
AmDlx Tele 010-1600/1602 Diagram
They're older (2004 revision), have a 3way, S1 - and seemingly a little less wires.

Once again, sending kind thoughts to the third rock.

The BK pickup will require slight modification which involves removing the link between the black ground wire and the pickup cover and soldering a separate ground wire to the cover tab.
The Bareknuckle diagram for 4 way switching shows this. https://bareknucklepickups.co.uk/main/d ... _4_way.pdf under IMPORTANT NOTE

The new cover ground wire should be soldered to the rear of the tone pot if your Deluxe is pre-2010 and the other 2 wires from the pickup coil go to the switch and the S1 where the existing white* and blue* wires are.
*These are the colours on the service diagram, yours may be different.
