Soldering question.

[AlexDelores]

Hey all, 

 

I’ve got an issue with my Squier Jaguar. 

 

It had a loose jack socket and I’ve accidentally twisted the wireless while it was inside and it’s broken this cable off… 

 

I’ve never touched pickups or electrics on a bass before but I’d quite like to try and fix this myself as it’s a pretty cheap non gigging bass and, well I need to start somewhere… 

 

It looks like this little white cable is soldered from the jack socket to the pot that’s marked… 

 

Am I correct or have I got this completely wrong?

 

Also, would I better stripping it off the control plate or just resoldering it in sitchu? 
 

Thanks in advance

Alex

There are lots of wiring diagrams here: http://www.ak-line.com/medium/Bassschaltungen.pdf

 

Is it a Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass with stacked pots?

Yeah it is! That’s great, thank you 🙏

While you're in there, your future self will thank you if you junk the existing socket and replace it with a switchcraft or pure tone one.
