Volume pot lug1 (CCW end) connects to volume pot casing for muting action → Volume pot lug1 (CCW end) connects to volume pot casing for muting action (wire, black) 7. Volume pot casing connects to tone pot casing to establish common ground rail → Volume pot casing connects to tone pot casing to establish common ground rail (wire, black) 8. Neck pickup hot lead (white) traces to 3-way switch upper input terminal → Neck pickup hot lead (white) traces to 3-way switch upper input terminal (wire, white) 9. Bridge pickup hot lead (white) traces to 3-way switch lower input terminal → Bridge pickup hot lead (white) traces to 3-way switch lower input terminal (wire, white) 10. Neck pickup hot lead (white) branches to 3-way switch middle tag T2 (position 2 input for parallel operation) → Neck pickup hot lead (white) branches to 3-way switch middle tag T2 (position 2 input for parallel operation) (wire, white) 11. Bridge pickup hot lead (white) branches to 3-way switch middle tag T2 (position 2 input for parallel operation); both pickups connect at T2 for parallel tone → Bridge pickup hot lead (white) branches to 3-way switch middle tag T2 (position 2 input for parallel operation); both pickups connect at T2 for parallel tone (wire, white) 12. 3-way switch common tag T4 (pole A) connects to volume pot lug 3 (input) → 3-way switch common tag T4 (pole A) connects to volume pot lug 3 (input) (wire, black) 13. Volume pot lug 2 (wiper) traces to tone pot lug 3 (input) → Volume pot lug 2 (wiper) traces to tone pot lug 3 (input) (wire, black) 14. Tone pot lug 2 (wiper) traces to output jack tip contact (hot output) → Tone pot lug 2 (wiper) traces to output jack tip contact (hot output) (wire, black) 15. Tone pot lug 1 (CCW end) connects to blue capacitor one end; capacitor other end to ground → Tone pot lug 1 (CCW end) connects to blue capacitor one end; capacitor other end to ground (wire, black) ## What each position does - The catalog selector model does not reach the output jack on every drawn throw (selectionReachesTip); position labels follow the source sheet, not a verified simulation table. - 50s-style volume/tone routing fails volumeMutes on the generic pot model; wiring matches the capacitor-before-tone drawing. ## Check before plugging in ## Source Tinkercaster's own drawing of the Tonerider diagram WIR-4001, revision 1.
