By connecting the metal work to the earth (ground) of the output jack socket - the bridge should be connected to this also..possibly via a body of any earthed Pot

Output jack socket - you can loop from one pot body to another - then to the socket - like a string of sausages..

They are looped because it would be difficult to solder a lot of wires onto the socket connection...........
