Steel Guitar Wiring Diagrams

Disclaimer: The following schematics are based on wiring I have found on steel guitars I have owned over the years that looked to have original wiring/electronics. It is entirely possible that some of these instruments were altered using original-looking wiring and parts. Use these diagrams as a guide but not necessarily as gospel!
