checked out the circuit diagrams 407bug, very useful thankyou.
I think all I need to do is re wire the circuit from fresh, feel confident enough to do this now.
The anonymous pick....yes some wires i.e earths are missing.
But ive done as you said and wired the pup straight to the jack..and Im so happy it sounds clean,responsive no crackles at all..So pleased...its a go'er!!
Cant wait to get the pots inline and fit it to a CBG
If you get a low output
Try adding a bigger magnet under the plate
If you google cigar circuits you should get the idea
Looks like the front pickup may have been cut out of the circuit
So may work as is.
If not it may be you need to
Get an earth wire from the jack socked to close the circuit
There are some useful postings on this site that may help.
by the looks of things , you should be able to attach that loose black wire to the other black loose wire . and test it . its there 2 wires insinde that red wire going to the jack ? and is it connected ?
another option is to just cut out the tone and vol , and just wire that pickup straight to the jack .
great way to test it too, before farking around for nothin
tip, if it sounds a bit hissy when you connect it to the jack , switch the wires around .
that vintage pup would sound awesome in a cbg . hope its not dead .

Thanks 407bug...I agree very close.
My only concern now is the pickup only seems to have two wires coming from it, black and red...is this normal?
Need to find a wire'ing diagram so i can rewire it to the pots again..any ideas would be great as i dont have a clue were to start !
Sounds sad but im so excited about this pickup !!
the anonymouse pick...thanks to you also...ive had a good look and cant see any letters or marks on the back.
Even better from the 60's should give a nice raw sound and would do well in a CBG ?

Pick it not quite dead on but very, close my tiesco circuit has those pot tab/arrows.
note the tab cut aways on the base plate. 60/70's tiesco/kay?
im thinking 60's teisco .. are there any letters written in marker on the back ?
