Schematic Diagrams for Electric Guitars & Bass

I searched the internet to find schematic diagrams for my bass guitar that I built myself. I am getting ready to upgrade the potentiometers, capacitors & wiring & didn’t like all of the wiring diagrams I was finding.

These schematics are reverse engineered by me, so they might be completely wrong. What the heck, I tried. I used CircuitDiagram.com to build it.

Jazz Bass Guitar Circuit Diagram
This is a Fender Jazz (style) bass guitar circuit diagram with 2 pickups, 2 tone & 1 volume.
Telecaster Guitar Circuit Diagram
Fender Telecaster (style) guitar circuit diagram with 2 pickups, 1 tone, 1 volume & a 3 position switch.
Stratocaster Style Circuit Diagram

These are the best representations of the guitar wiring diagrams I was seeing online. I had some trouble figuring out the switches as there are no diagrams of the internal structure. If I have something wrong please let me know. Chris at this website URL.
