21. Volume left lug drops straight down to the tone's left lug (tone drawn lugs up). → Volume left lug drops straight down to the tone's left lug (tone drawn lugs up). (wire, signal)
22. Tone middle lug goes to one leg of the .022µf capacitor; the right tone lug is drawn empty. → Tone middle lug goes to one leg of the .022µf capacitor; the right tone lug is drawn empty. (wire, black)

## What each position does



- Some coil grounds reach the jack sleeve only through the drawn coil network (groundsReachSleeve); topology is transcribed as shown.
- Series-link wires sit on the signal path as drawn; the engine rejects that topology (seriesLinkIsolated) but the transcription matches the manufacturer diagram.
