Man, that was some wild template they used to route those cavities.:wow Or maybe everyone made their own.

 

[johnnyjellybean]

Thanks guys ! If you have anymore that are already up, please post them.

Steve; I just re-read your post and noiticed that you were asking for '59's only. The photos I posted above are a mix of '58s,'59s, & '60s

Maybe you can go back and edit out all the 1958 and 1960 ones, for simplicity.

Here's my 1959 cavity. Notice, never had a ground wire. Never caused a problem for me.

But yet the hole is there...interesting. A Monday or Friday guitar no doubt!

Hey Guys! Sorry to resurrect such an old thread but I have a question concerning the ground wire that connects all the pots! In most cases the wire connects all the 4 pots but there seem to be some exceptions!? In some control cavities the ground wire seems to be connected in pairs (see photo right-hand corner)!

Did they come from the factory like this or was it usually done later on?

Probably has a ground wire in the bridge pickup cavity.

The solder does not look original on the neck pickup control ground wire.

I believe they were grounded both ways, all 4 or 2 & 2.

Thanks for your reply TW59! :dude: Are there any audible differences between these two ways of grounding?

I can't imagine there would be any audible difference.
