[DarknessFury]

Erm...what is the wire used for? The one soldered on the metal which holds the spring...

 

[namle]

ground

 

[DarknessFury]

Oh...where should it put connected to? It's broken...not sure who snapped it off...

 

[namle]

what is broken?

 

[fgl]

Oh...where should it put connected to? It's broken...not sure who snapped it off...

quick alert the authorities to do a complete investigation into who commited this heinous act... :?

 

[daryl]

fgl, you're lame. he's asking where the wire should be connected to, not who disconnected the wire.

 

[DarknessFury]

what is broken?

The wire

 

[fgl]

darryl - if U know of the witty repatee that me & darkness always have here in the forums - in jest, that is - U'd realise that your post is lame....

fierce.

 

[fgl]

nope - not fierce, merely point out da facts.. early mornin joke2 also cannot....?

 

[Guest]

can't i joke too

Which side is broken off? Or both side broken?
If it's not connected to the spring claw, then solder it back onto the spring claw.
If it's connected to the spring claw but the other part is not connected, then open up and see.
If can see where it broke off then lucky you, jsut solder back there.
If cannot then you'll have to know where ground is and solder it there.

Or take picture then we tell you.

nope - sorry - members only ...lolz :lol:

 

[DarknessFury]

The wire is soldered on the spring claw...but inside the guitar, it's a loose wire...no idea where it broke off...

 

[fgl]

solder it to the back of the vol or for that matter any pot....

 

[DarknessFury]

Really? Oh ok...thanks

 

[theblueark]

Not all pots are always grounded.

 

[DarknessFury]

Erm, ok...so I have to solder on which pot?

 

[namle]

take a picture and post here

 

[jeremyrozario]

solder on any pot that has another wire soldered to it, common engineering sense, if there somesolder on the back of a pot, its definitely the ground, any1 care to dispute me? heehee :lol:
