Will someone lead me to a triple neck wiring diagram for my 1955 fender?

Thank you. Thank You.

Hill,

Is the guitar a Custom or a Stringmaster? If it's a Stringmaster, there is a universal schematic on my web page at:

Just to change the topic a "little", I noticed on the schematics that Fender calls for a 1 meg linear pot with a .05 mfd capacitor for the tone control. Does the Fender tone control give the "boo-wah" sound?

Yes it does and you may notice how free the control is too. You can spin it. It is very fast. Fender controls and caps were quite extreme. Using the .05 gives a very deep bass. I've noticed that a lot of guitars now don't use anything over a .03 or .04 at most and they are usually mylar etc reather than the paper.
