Ibanez wiring leads. Which colour represents what?

[pooo]

In my attempt to save 40 bucks yet again from visiting the tech to install new pickups, I'm stumbling on a small problem.

Anyone here knows what the white and red wires of a stock ibanez pickup represent?

Poo, u need a multimeter. Only then you can identify what the leads represent.

Go to Sim Lim tower. Don't go all out to get the cheapest multimeter u can find. Sanwa makes a reliable multimeter. Try getting one which can measure capacitance as well.

Ah, i don't think i'll be needing one after all. The past 2 days worth of research and study paid off, managed to get the pickups in, and functioning well too hehe Slowly, but surely getting better at this

Thanks guys! :lol:
