Westone Thunder I-T and Thunder I wiring

Westone Thunder I-T wiring

This is a diagram of the wiring in my 1984 Thunder I-T The volume and tone pots are 500K log, the tone capacitors are 0.022 microfarad Mylar. The coil tap switch is a DPDT mini toggle switch

  1. The earth/shield wires from both humbuckers and the pickup selector switch are soldered to the body of the first tone pot.
  2. There is no earth wire to the second tone pot - it doesn't need one as all the pots are mounted on a metal plate (If one is earthed, they all are)
  3. For convenience  all white wires are shown as yellow
  4. Note these two wires are the black ('Hot') wires from the pickups, they are not connected to the earth/shield wires

Westone Thunder I wiring

This diagram is taken from a 1984 Thunder I . It is essentially the same as the diagram for the Thunder I-T, the only difference being the number of wires from the pickups.All pots are 500K log, tone capacitors are 22nF Mylar, coil tap switch is a DPDT mini toggle switch
