Marlen wiring

Gary McVay · From: Tennessee, USA

I just bought a Speedy West D10 Marlen and the wiring is a mess. I don't have a clue how it should be wired.
Can anyone help? It has a selector switch, plus another switch between the necks. A volume control on the end of guitar.

I have no clue, but you might wanna contact Ricky Davis. He's worked on some. Are you sure that's a volume control? Appears to have a tone cap on it.

John you are probably right. I don't know. I'm dumb as a rock when it comes to wiring.

Well, Gary, shoot Ricky an email. He's done a couple of fabulous restorations on Speedy West Marlens. Go here, and scroll down for a couple of real beauties;

Fortunately the Marlen's I had in didn't need rewiring or pickup change....so I haven't messed with that configuration. That looks like a rats nest going on there in the switch area.
And yes It's a Tone knob.
If I had it; I'm sure I could figure it out..but very hard to tell from the pics.
