Would I need any other wire or is the 5 feet single conductor shielded, 22AWG wire all thats needed?
I just bought a set of Control Knobs for course spline pots for my original pots will these fit on the pots from that kit?

The caps are
Sprague ORANGE DROP 715P Series Capacitor 4 sizes 200V 0.022uF
And the wiring I bought is 22awg of various colours
Like I said Im going to try it using the pots/jack and 3 way switch I already have to see how I get on and I may buy the kit you linked to at a later date when I have the funds.
The same buzzing is still present and like before its so bad I cant really hear the actual guitar sound past it. It makes me think that the pickups are not connected correctly?
I have connected the thick black wire from the bridge pickup to the top of the volume pot then the yellow wire to the tab at the bottom of the pot. The same goes for the Neck pickup?

I have a ground cable from the jack going to all 4 pots then the hot wire from the jack goes to the 3 way selector.
You can just see the ground cable from the body going to the top right pot. Remember that the red cable on the bottom left pot is actually the ground from the pickup. I just had to put some shrink wrap on it and red is all I had?

That isnt a crack its just how the light caught the switch when I took the pic
That white/black wire is for the bridge pick up I didnt have any other colour wire. It goes to the middle tab of the bridge volume pot?
As you can probable tell. Im not much use with written directions. Could it be possible for you to draw a diagram showing the pots, switch and jack and where each wire goes? Sorry for being a pain but I really would like to get this up and running.

Its still the same. I wonder if my main lead to the PC is knackered. I have a new one but I need to wait on my TonePort GX to arrive, tomorrow hopefully, before I can use it though?
Are the Caps in the correct place? The leads where too small so I added a bit to them?
