the hot wire is the wire that goes from the middle prong on the vol. knob to the positive on the jack, 1 black wire goes to the ground on the other prong the other black wire grounds to the trem claw in the rear cavity probably or maybe somewhere else not really sure they are all different
-
also make sure you dont over heat the pot by holding the iron on it too long or you will ruin it

how many watts should the soldering iron be? thanks!
kedocom 1 year ago
@kedocom Doesn't have to be much, if it's a soldering iron it should do the work. I think mine is 40 or 60W, it will take a bit longer to get to proper temperature, but more than that you'll burn things or make your work hard.

urm can you help me? my solder wont stick to the potentialmeter ... so what should i do?
HAIKELzambri 2 years ago
You gotta make sure it's very clean - no oil from touching it (pot AND wire tips). Use isopropilic alcohol to clean it. Even so, sometimes it won't stick, it's part of it, try again and again. I guess during the videos I had to redo it a couple of times (and edited it) ;>)

ive got a practice pot(a second hand one juz to practice) i noticed something like a copper behind the solder..what is it?
HAIKELzambri 2 years ago
dunno, maybe it's copper to increase conductivity... or maybe it's the frozen liquid from the solder. sorry, can't help on that.
