If I understand your posts...all the wires marked as an earth in the Guitar electronics schematic..that is the wires that end in three shortening parallel lines perpendicular to the 'wire'...should meet a common point. Relate that to the first diagram & that is the back of the volume pot shown.

It is widely recommended to screw a brass washer or the like to a point inside the control cavity and solder all those loose ends to it.

There is a body of opinion that regards this as unnecessary & all the loose ends can be soldered to the back of a pot as in the first diagram.

Try Guitar Nuts web site : http://www.guitarnuts.com/index.php
& books like the Guitar Handbook.

Good luck and have fun.
