I considered the possibility he may have fried that pot too. I def cooked a couple on the learning curve wiring my Viper. Sanding off the shiny and using a good soldering flux is a must for getting it done right IMO.
All I could find other than the tele one they supplied. I’m not getting signal output. Could that jack be bad?
I could have for sure. I gobbed the solder on there.
I don't think it's your jack. You could have a cold solder joint causing a problem too. Did you sand off the shiny stuff on the back AND use flux? If the pots spin really really freely or won't turn at all those are potential signs of a cooked pot. Learned that trying to wire the Viper. One of my pots still has some detent feeling to it in spots but it works.
17.75 actually….it’s a bridge model but I was very surprised by it…..
Let me tell you a fun one i did other day. I soldered the volume lug for the hot, but spillled some solder, and it grounded the signal. Take out your pots and make sure you dont have a line of solder down the the body
If I understand correctly I’m not getting a tone and it’s reading 620 on each pickup.
Don’t be hatin yo….
Really? I didn’t notice that.. fucker….
He needs to use flux.
Test every connection for continuity. Start at jack. Then ground at jack, then from pot to pot, check the switch. If you’re getting no sound at all out of the amp there’s a continuity issue. And reflow the all the joints with some flux.
Does it still turn reasonably smoothly?
I'm going to go with your wiring is bad
