Restoration of a Burns Sonic 1886

Recommended Posts

Hello. I am currently restoring a Burns Sonic 1866 and need help in checking the wiring of the PU and switches please. Anyone know of a wiring diagram and the specs of the pots and capacitors. I want to replace all of it if I can as they are all original and I remember when I played it in the 80s nothing worked very well. It was my brother's and my first guitar. Ive included one pic but have more close ups. There is one wire not attached and Im not sure where it goes... Also anyone know where I can get new nobs for the pots? Thanks

Maybe a source for parts would be a certain 'KiOgon' on the sister site..? He's highly respected, and knows all there is to know about these things. Any help..? rWNVV2D.gif

 

PS : Is that unconnected wire an earth for connection to the metal bridge..? :/
