Help a new builder please: wiring for Lollar String-Through

Post by JB Bobbitt »

I'm a first-time lap-steel builder, new to electric components as well.

I'm looking for a simple wiring diagram for a single Lollar string-though, single lead PUP. I expect it will be very simple, but not easy to find by the usual search engines.

Is there a book or website that covers simple electronics for guitars?

Thanks a heap,

Seems later ones used a 500k tone pot, that would be slightly more mellow.
