So I usually remove the rhythm circuit from my Jazzmasters. Easy enough with my basic soldering ability.
But having trouble with one of them after doing this and going on to remove the tone knob too.
Have tried copying this Thurston Moore Jazzmaster wiring but no dice at all to get anything working. (not sure why? as that seems to be the official circuit so..)
Have ended up re-adding the tone knob and this is how the wiring is currently set up. Fairly certain this is how it was before. But now my guitar sounds as if the tone knob is turned all the way down all the time.
Can anyone see what I've done wrong here?
And is there a workable wiring diagram out there for a Jazzmaster with only pickup switch and volume knob?

These should work, just use P90s instead

Ah the second one works well, thanks. A bit of buzz without contact on guitar but will check grounds over tomorrow.
