Hello,

I recently picked up a basket case Jackson JS model at a local pawn shop. It was pretty beat up but I've always wanted a Jackson so we agreed on $40 and I loaded it into my truck and brought her home.

The body was pretty beat up so I sanded her down and repainted her. I'm in the process of putting her back together but I've never wired a guitar before. I'm decent at electrical work. I'm not alien to soldering/crimping/basics of electrical.

Is there any way to get a wiring diagram for a Dinky with 2 humbuckers and a 5 way switch (and a volume and a tone knob) ?

Also, I need to purchase a nut for the neck. Is there a specific size/dimension I need?

Thanks in advance.

My serial number (on the back of the headstock) is:

65002779

Here is the wiring diagram for a dual hum, 5 way, and volume/tone combination..

Are you looking for a locking nut or a standard nut?

Thank you very much for the help.

I'm just looking for a standard nut, non-locking, black

I tried doing some research but couldn't determine the dimensions I need so I figured it'd be safer to ask here for assistance.

Thanks again, I truly appreciate it.

She's turning out great.

I am not that familiar with the JS Series, nor do I have direct access to one for reference, but this may be your best bet to find something..
