i think it is not good yo do it on your own? what i do is always go to a local store and ask someone to fix thing for me for a small fee. In that way i know experts handle my guitar.
well i tell you a little over DIY is not that bad? it makes you learn things but just be careful or else it would be a expensive practice if you messed up.
If it's any help to anyone There is a CD of Fender schematic this shows the wiring diagrams for all Fender Products Amps Guitars Bass I anyone needs a schematic just post a request an I can email to you as the cd is 600mb but if lots want I could make a torrent for all to download
