Wiring Diagram
The wiring diagram illustrates the internal electrical connections of the Fender Player Telecaster Left Hand. It shows the pathways from the neck pickup and bridge pickup to the 3-way selector switch. The switch output is connected to the volume control. The tone control, paired with a 0.05µF capacitor, is also integrated into the circuit, typically affecting the signal before or after the volume control. The final signal is routed to the output jack. Wires are depicted in black, white, and green.
Key components shown:
- Neck Pickup
- Bridge Pickup
- 3-Way Switch
- Volume Control
