Ground Wire?
Ground Wire?
I'm building a custom pgm301 so im not sure if the ground wire still goes to the bridge.
yes it does...
just as Starr said, there's a hole you gotta drill from under that bridge diagonally to the control cavity. Since you aren't going with a floating system you can't just drill thru the wall and connect to the spring claw.
Be very careful how you make this hole...lol It's not hard...but I've seen people mess up their tops doing it wrong.
No matter the guitar, you always have a bridge ground so that when you are touching the strings, you are that ground. ('Cept for those using EMG's, but some of us still grounded those too...)
You don't solder it to the bridge...it just pokes up from the hole and you expose some of the wire, and screw the bridge down on top of it. That's all the contact it needs.

Not sure what kind of guitar you have. But on my Les Pauls...
It is a small wire that runs from the treble side bridge (or tailpiece) stud hole to one of the pots. It is usually just attached to the stud by the sheer force of the stud being pounded into the hole and making contact with the wire. Thats all there is to it.
