Sorry for the rookie question, but I'm upgrading electronics and pickups for the first time. PRS Zach Myers, so 2 HBs, 2 vol, 2 tone, 3-way toggle. The stock wiring uses shielded wire for everything and the bridge ground goes to the neck volume pot case and that's where it ends, only a hot wire goes to the jack. I'm using new cloth wire, new pots and new pickups, and am using a Seymour Duncan diagram to go by. But it shows the bridge ground running to the bridge tone pot and then continuing to the sleeve of the output jack.
I don't know which is the right method, or why a ground isn't currently run to the jack. My gut tells me to trust the SD diagram. Could someone explain why the grounding method is different and if either of the methods is better?
Edit: Here's the SD diagram I'm using: https://docs.google.com/gview?embed...om/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/2H_3G_2V_2T.pdf
