Anyone got a circuit diagram for '81 Precision Special?

[Beedster]

What it says above really? Really need to know where the leads from the PUPs attach to the circuit board

Cheers

Couldn't find a diagram for that specific bass, but one of these should be almost identical depending on which circuit board was used in yours:

Hiya mate
Thanks for those. without wishing to sound ungrateful, neither does the trick I'm afraid. It's the preamp with the pots on the board, much like the J-Retro. I have one black lead going onto it, so I assume that's the PUP, however, I can't see an obvious point where the other PUP lead would attach, so I'm assuming it goes straight to earth? Need to clarify before sparks fly!

Hi Chris
If you email Scott at Fender support I have always found him very helpful with obscure Diagrams.

Hi Beedster,
I too have an '81 Precision Special and I have a problem with the treble tone pot. If I turn it up it creates what sounds like feedback (high pitched squealing). Would you be able to forward me a copy of the circuit?
