Pickup Color Codes

For this tutorial we will be using Bare Knuckle Color Codes. Each pickup brand uses their own set of color codes. So these colors might not match your pickups. We have included this diagram showing you all the color codes for other brands. In Order to install your pickups to the this harness you need to combine the ground and Bare Wire to make the "Ground" and then combine the two Series Wire to make the Series Link.
