Very thorough, with excellent close up video shots. At 4:10, you hold down the braided wire with metal tweezers. Just a tip for people who might be as clumsy with soldering as I am when holding a piece down: use a wooden popsicle stick with one of the curved ends cut off so that it's square. Wood doesn't conduct, so it gets a hot joint on the back of the pot without absorbing heat from the soldering iron. It also doesn't slide around the piece being soldered or draw solder to it.

Or separately like a circle "around" the backside of the pod? How do you prevent the previous soldered wires to get loose when the heat of the actual soldering process reaches them? Thanks and keep up your good job.

Not good ?? So I will wit until next month's Pension & buy an iron which comes in & out of the stand .. I have several projects to start on like a loose ground wire on strat type trem claw ? I can see the old solder . Also I see that ventilation is important too so as it is 12/2/21 & very cold today I will not be starting today lol .

Was that really a short amount of time with the iron?, if so it wasn't what I had anticipated. What, in terms of duration is an acceptable, non damaging time scale, please. Excellent post 🙂
@ThomannsGuitarsBasses4 жыл бұрын
It was as short as possible. The duration of heating the solder depends on the electrical component, the wire type and the temperature of the iron. The backside of a pot always needs a little longer, because its a big metal surface that doesn't get enough hot very fast. As soon as the solder melted, stay on it a few more seconds longer with the iron (to have a stable joint) and then let it cool down. This whole thing takes way shorter if you're soldering a wire to a log or a switch. So there's no exact duration I could tell you, there are too many variables. //cheers, Kris

@ThomannsGuitarsBasses2 жыл бұрын
Hey, it could be the pickup, or other parts of the electronic. First you could re-solder that pickup and see if that helped. If not, swap the cables of the two pickups (bridge wire to where the neck wire is now). If all of a sudden the bridge pickup is quiet, then it's not the pickup, but the switch / pot where the neck pickup was wired to. And if it's still the neck pickup that's quiet, then it's an internal pickup issue. The pickup wire is broken or the winding itself has something. In that case you can bring it to a pickup doctor or just swap it. Cheers //Kris

Hey there. In order for the solder joint to be shiny, the solder needs to contain lead. However, inside of the EU the use of solder which contains lead is only allowed in safety relevant ares. I therefore assume that you have solder without any lead which is perfectly fine! Your solder joints won't be shiny but if you are working at around 350° (maybe 360° in some cases), you're doing everything correctly.

Do you mean soldering the backside of the pots? Yeah that needs some practice which you can do on old, faulty pots. You have to heat it up (already with a drop of solder on the tip of the iron) as long as that drop starts to spread on the pot. This takes quite a few seconds and you should have a capable soldering iron. At lower temperatures this might not work that easily. On the other hand you should avoid heating the pot for too long, since that might ruin it. As told, it's a fine balance between not heating it up enough and cooking it. Good luck! //Kris
