It's so amazing how you never mention what wires go where, its soooo helpful and encouraging.
Literally every owner of the Squire CV Jazz Bass viewing this video...thanks for the detailed instructions!
Your tutorial gave me the courage to rewire my '65 Jazz Bass - and it sounds amazing!
Thank You Thank You Thank You 🙏
I'm the same way brother about the OCD thing. Even though aesthetics may not have any bearing on the tone, there is nothing wrong with taking pride in your work.
I'm glad I found your video here. It's so instructional. Please my bass has for POTS and I need to wire them. Which configuration can I use.
1. One volume, one low, one mid and one high for the tones
2. Two volumes and two tone controls one for each volume
I am using a500k for tone and b500 for volume and 47 for capacitor
Instead of a jig, you could just lay a roll of tape down on its side and sit that on top of it with the pots going through the hole. I decided I'm gonna do that after I used copper tape to shield my guitar and the roll seems decent for holding it steady.
I gotta comment - it looks so clean my bro great work.
Thanks so much for this Zach / Strings Attached. I managed to rewire my own J bass copy with this guide, hugely helpful and I really appreciate it (although going to take me many attempts to make the wiring as neat as yours!)
I know this is a year old video, but there is a reason those are called pushback wires. You dont clip them, you just push the cloth back :)
thats what I thought during the whole video!
great video. do you have a parts list please
This video helped a lot, thanks so much!
You did it on your bass? It reduce the noise or buzz?
Nice shot ! Thanks !! 👌
Bravo!! it helps a lot.
Thank for sharing the idea..
Finally, I learned how to check the wiring of a 4 string bass with 3knobs, and I like this guy coz he is wearing Casio F91 wristwatch 😎
Enjoyed your video. I am going to attempt what you did. What kind of wire did you use for the hot leads and the grounds. Tried putting a pre wired Mojotone into my Squire vintage modified Jag bass SS I did not work so I like what you did. And yes the stock wiring is a rats nest.
Well done and tidy.
This video inspired me to get my bass out and redo my shoddy soldering 🤣
I redid it very well actually. Well for me anyway
Hi, very good work👍 thanks for teaching.
May I know is any wire can use for the pot connection?
Super cool
what Capacitor did you use? 250 k or 500 k ?
Hi, could I ask what that buzz/bus wire is? I can't seem to find out where I can get one of those. Thanks!
Lovely neat job!!🥰🥰🍷🍷🎸🎸
Ok big question , the 2 grounds from the pickups can be bundled together the bridge grounded separately to a pot ??
Is there a parts list for this? Wanting to have a go
I am so OCD about my wiring too!
Just got a CV 70s J. Stepping up to fender vintage 74s. My rep said no need to change pots. I disagree I think some better fender pots ( want to keep it fender for resale purposes) like the ones in the American basses. Will be my first wiring job and pup swap. Think I should get a pro and take notes.
Got the same pups for my cv 70s j. 63s in my cv 70s p. Pots definitely. Mo jo.
Hi, I have a J n D short scale jazz bass and wish to replace the pots and re wire it possibly with a jazz bass replacement wiring kit. Any thoughts as to type of posts and Cap? If anyone can suggest i would be grateful for advise, Thanks
What is the electronic components .name please send me.Sir.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
How much to do this to my Mexican fender jazz? And how can I get a hold of you?
I don't send harnesses out; I only work on stuff that comes into the shop. But that said, if you're ever in town, I'm happy to make one for you!
Bravo 🔥
I don't know anything about my Squier Jazz bass insides. I do want to upgrade the pots, jack and pickups. I was able to follow along the first part except I didn't understand soldering directly to the back of the pots, but I think I could do it. I was unclear on the bare wire you added, too. I was hoping for guidance when it came to the pickups, but you lost me! I saw 6 wires and wasn't sure what happen to them, which are "hot" or "leads" and which are not, and what to do. I actually ordered an Obsidian control harness plate with CTS pots and Switchcraft jack and quick connects, but I think I could do the soldering. My concern is now I will have 6 pickup wires and no clue which is which! Also how do I ground, and do I need to shield? I also need to get the pickups.......thanks for some guidance, though. I am curious how much you charge to do the harness and install new pickups though?
I have a stupid question, what do you use for the Buzz wire ? and were to find it ? Thanks
Generally, I've been ordering it from Mojotone, I think. One big roll lasts me about a year.
Great
I'm not far from Columbia, and I've been looking for a good luthier, where is your shop located?
Hi Kevin, thanks for reaching out!

Right now, we're booked so far out that we're meeting with folks by appointment. Whenever you're ready to come in, call or text 803-447-4643 and we can get you scheduled.
Thanks again, and I look forward to meeting you! I hope the hurricane didn't hit you hard!
Where did you get those sleeves for the knobs?
hmm i love how it looks but the possibility of a pot going loose with a screw and lightly moving breaking the wiring worries me
Hi Zach! ALL right? Please, Tell me if you factory this Control Plate for Sales?
I repaired my daughters bass today. One wire had loosened from a pot. Had to solder it. While doing that one more got loose. Bad solderings from the factory.
Do you know of any website to buy that mesh-covered cable?
Amazon . Ebay
what type of capacitor do you use?
Trabaja con 473
473
If you need something for your OCD I have some pristiq, serequel, Ativan. Up to you.
I have the exact same bass,
control plate*
Hi, how are you doing? I have a doubt about your procedure, what is the orange capacitator purpose, why its connected to all pots?I I am an amateur wanting to change my pups. Thanks! cheers!
I don’t know if you have figured it out by now or not but the capacitor is sending the top frequencies only to the ground. The tone pot works the same way as the volume pots. When the volume pot is turned counter-clockwise, the signal is sent to ground which means you get no volume from that pickup.
For the tone, turning the knob counter clockwise is sending the signal to the capacitor which is only passing the top end to ground. This gives a darker sound since the top end isn’t being sent to the output Jack. I hope this helps

Where is your flux, my dude?! Also sweet jesus i come from the nerf modding hobby and some of your wire choices make me nauseous lol. Why not just mark all of the connextions on the ground wire circuit on an uncut line of wire, stip them at the marks, then solder at the exposed points?
