Deedee Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Apologies in advance for being sh*te with wiring but here goes. I've just bought this Dimarzio Model P off the forum and have wired it up into my Squier P with a Kiogon solderless kit already fitted. The black and white wires are taped together and are not being used. I've put the red wire where the white would normally go and the green wire in with the already present ground wires (where the black would normally go). Half the pickup sounds fine i.e. thick and powerful tone. The other half sounds very quiet and out of phase. Any ideas what I may have done wrong?

Deedee Posted June 20, 2017 Author Share Posted June 20, 2017 🙄 I'm a muppet. The insulation tape shielding the black and white wires had come off, thus interfering with the other wires. Now sounds great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very impressed. I'd heard people rave about these pickups before, but they really do have a real thick punch to them. The Squier VM P that I've fitted it to already had a Kiogon kit fitted (CTS pots etc). My MIJ 70's reissue P is fitted with a Custom Shop '62 which I also love, but this model P really has turned my Squier into a worthy alternative rather than just a decent spare.
