# One single coil with one volume Canonical page: https://guitarwiring.app/wiring-diagrams/seymour-duncan/one-single-coil-one-volume One single coil · No switch · One volume · No tone The shortest useful harness: one single-coil pickup through a 250k volume pot to a mono output jack, with the bridge ground on the pot casing. Drawing: https://guitarwiring.app/wiring-diagrams/seymour-duncan/one-single-coil-one-volume.svg (back of controls) ## Parts and values - Single coil: Single coil (white and black leads); generic (Single-coil pickup (two-conductor)) - Volume 250k: Volume 250k; 250k; compatible example (CTS 250k Audio Pot) - Output jack: Output jack (tip and sleeve); compatible example (Switchcraft \#11) - Ground wire from bridge: ground wire from bridge; generic (Bridge ground wire) ## Specific to this wiring - The grey “Solder” spots on the volume casing are the ground points: the pickup's black lead, the jack sleeve and the bridge ground all end there. - The volume's right lug is bent over and soldered to the casing. ## Connections 1. Bridge ground → Volume casing (upper solder spot) (shield, black): Drawn leaving the page towards the bridge. 2. Pickup black → Volume casing (lower solder spot) (case, black) 3. Volume right lug → Volume casing (case): Lug bent onto the casing. 4. Volume casing → Jack sleeve (wire, black) 5. Pickup white → Volume left lug (input) (wire, white) 6. Volume middle lug → Jack tip (wire, black) ## What each position does - Always on: Single coil. Source: One pickup, no selector. - Pickup resistance is not specified, so no numeric meter readings are given. ## Check before plugging in - With the volume up, the meter across the jack should read the pickup's resistance. - With the volume at zero, tip and sleeve should read as a short. ## Source Tinkercaster's own drawing of the Seymour Duncan diagram 1S\_1V, revision 1.
