rhythmbug Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) Bit of a noob question here, please bear with me! I've installed a J set of EMGs plus a BQC system into my bass. No signal coming from the neck pickup. Now, the neck pickup had been used with another preamp and the black ground wire had been removed from the joint. I found the removed ground wire (2 inches long), and re-soldered it to the joint. Was that a mistake? Will I need to de-solder the joint first and locate the ground wire underneath? NB: by "joint" I'm referring to the big soldered joint where the white cable should split into black/white. I hope this makes sense!! Cheers for any advice.. rhythmbug Edited July 8, 2013 by rhythmbug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmchich Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 You may want to post pics of the wiring to help people, if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
