I just started building my Flying V today, its my first guitar that I build and wonder how a wiring diagram for 2 humbuckers with 2 volume pots and one tone, and 3-wayswitch would like like. otherwise, good instruction on how to make the wiring, hopefully I got some better insight in the world of electronics

[marcoamf1977]

Best site for this is 1728 (just search 1728 pickup wiring, you will find). Lots of instructions. Not sure the 3-way would work with only 1 tone (which position would use tone?)

Great! Really informative! I'm trying to put together my own Airline guitar right now.

Off to a good start!

One thing I've found useful is to have a hotter pickup for the bridge position and something milder for the neck, like how Leo did it for the Telecaster. Your mileage may vary, of course...
