National New Yorker D-8 wiring

Jim Palenscar · From: Oceanside, Calif, USA

I've got a quasi-basket case D-8 New Yorker (in truth a Console) at the shop and, while the neck has been routed out for multiple pickups, it has only 1 pickup for each neck. The wiring has been disconnected but has a volume control as well as a tone control for each neck (chimes, etc.) and 2 caps for each neck. It also has 2 separate amphenol connectors that I have modified with a neck switch to one output and am in need of a std wiring diagram for the 2 caps. Any help would save me a lot of time Sad

- thanks in advance~~ Jim

As a bit of an update- in this National Console D8 each pickup is comprised of 8 thin cardboard bobbins wound to 1k/ea and wired in series with one end grounded and the the other end going to the volume control. One of the puzzling things is there is another wire from the center of the bobbins tapping in between the 4th and 5th string that is also wanting a home and I'm a bit baffled on its destination and the tone control wiring with 2 different caps is still a bit of a puzzle. Again- any help........ Smile
