Wiring Close..not quite...

[geekmacdaddy]

Ok. I have been trying to build a Rangemaster, http://aronnelson.com/gallery/TheBigMan-Layouts/rangemaster using this wiring scheme, http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/diagrams/switch_lo_3pdt_ig_dcjack.gif but, they have 4 grounds coming of of thier model board. Can someone give me suggestions on how to get the ground to both Jacks, the 9v input, and the footswitch, with just one cable coming from my RageMaster PCB? Can I run another ground from the same "strip"? Do I solder "dual" connections? Where?

Thank you

Sometimes they add extra ground pad holes to make it convenient for an LED, or whatever.

I would just run a wire to one of the jacks sleeve ground, then run a wire from that jack sleeve to the other jack sleeve, and whatever else....

If you want power switching when a cord is plugged into input jack, just connect the battery ground to the ring of the steroe input jack, and that will  do it.  It will make the ring connect to the sleeve when a cord is inserted.

Good Luck!
