<p>Sorry to be late to the party but, having just posted a question myself and reading the forum, I came across your post and hope this may help.</p>
<p>I have a Dano '59 12 string that had dodgy connection a couple of years ago so before re-soldering everything I made a note of the connections. This has proved helpful to someone else recently, so if you've not got it sorted yet, I hope it may help you also.</p>

<p><span>Yes , it seems that, but I connected the red cable to the other side and it diddn´t work, may that is because of a ground issue , I´ll try to make a blueprint in paper to check the conneections</span></p>

<p>There are a bunch of Danelectro schematics around, but I can't vouch for any. I've attached one. </p>
<p></p>
<p>The reason the middle position is louder is because the pick ups are in series (a danelectro trait). </p>
<p></p>
<p>I would try to get the factory wiring to work. If that fails (or you don't like it) you can convert to a more typical, Gibson style wiring. I have a reissue longhorn that a installed a 6 way switch (from Stew Mac) going into master volume and tone. Still not a Jazz…</p>

<p>there seems to be no pickup connected to one side of the switch , should be a pickup soldered to each end , and the output from the centre terminal . When I say pickup , it could be the output from a pot .</p>

<p>Someone here may have the answer right off the bat, but this may not be the best venue for electric guitar wiring questions. Here's a good Facebook group (among many others) that might be better suited for the question at hand... good luck :)</p>
