In this video, Radioshop's Paul Best shows you how to solder to the prongs on Tele and Strat style switches. There'll be another video on this subject in the future of the series concentrating on how to solder two wires into one prong - keep your eyes peeled and ring the bell for notifications!
We'll also have a video coming soon exploring Gibson style switches. Lots to come!

LOVE your lessons! My soldering skills have been abysmal, and scary, worrying that I'm going to stuff it up. Too much solder, trying to get the back of a Potentiometer hot enough for solder to adhere to it, to building a mountainous mess of too much solder and probably destroying the potentiometer with too much heat from the soldering iron lol. Now after watching these, I feel much more confident. Thank you so much!

thanks for this man. I was replacing some wires on a super switch and god it was difficult. it was the location of the two lugs I had to connect. I finally connected this ONE wire after failing countless times.

Can you solder wire to the hot wire of a pickup if you need to make the hot wire of the pickup longer? Outstanding videos, big help, thank you.

Almost professional 😊

I'm just about to replace my Strat PUP switch. The factory-wired switch was full-on hook-around connected. I couldn't unsolder the connections to remove the wires. No choice but to snip.

Do you solder the jumpers through the lugs or on top? And does it matter?

@EverythingisFire 8 месяцев назад

What wire is used for, uh, bridging the two sides of the selector?

Great video, I think you'll find that NASA recommend the mechanical method in their soldering specification 😉

NASA don’t have a soldering specification they use IPC and have done since 2011. But yes going through the hole is the only way acceptable professionally.

Three issues if you are to solder these joints correctly, you have too much solder on the wire and way too much on the tab, the wire should be cut to length before it is soldered in place. Doing so gives a nice clean joint where you can clearly see all the strands of wire and the individual parts, snipping to length also means the joint is smooth after it is made.
