Re: Harmony H601. Help with the wiring.
Hi Alberto, Thank you for the complments. I am glad I was able to help you and that you are enjoying your guitar. I understand how you feel about keeping the guitar as original as possible. A few years back, I purchased an old pedal steel guitar that was a built by someone many years ago and it was...

Re: Harmony H601. Help with the wiring.
Let us know how that works out for you. The process of elimination can tell a lot. Paul Hello again, Paul. Since you asked me to let you know how your suggestions worked out, I will update you with the news. Last night I decided that, after having checked, as I already told you, that the guitar pic...

Re: Harmony H601. Help with the wiring.
I'm happy that you have it working and you are pleased with your guitar. If you search the net you should be able to find the proper string gauge for what ever tuning you chose to use, but they are likely in Doug's book anyway. Enjoy your new found toy. Paul Thanks, Paul. I'm doing it. As for gauge...

Re: Harmony H601. Help with the wiring.
Glad to hear the pickup is working. Yes as you bring the pickup closer to the strings you will get more volume. 1/8 inch gap between the strings and pickup is around the average distance most people on the forum like. As for measuring the resistance of the tone and volume pots they should be measur...

Re: Harmony H601. Help with the wiring.
Let us know how that works out for you. The process of elimination can tell a lot. Paul Hello, Paul. I did as you said, connected the pickup straight to the jack and guess what! It works! It's a tad quieter than a cheap Artisan EA-1 I've also got, but on the other hand in the EA-1 I had brought the...

That's a great idea, Paul. I never thought of connecting the pickup straight to the jack. Thank you very much!

Re: Harmony H601. Help with the wiring.
Apparently it's not easy to find the original schematics for this guitar. I couldn't find it on google patents. As for a picture of the electronics, I'll ask my son to take it tomorrow and post it, but I doubt that it will help, because it's difficult to see how the connections are made, unless in ...
