Dwight.....I apologize for my delayed response. I did not see your post until just now.

I don't remember MSA ever making an expression pedal that had two pots inside.
If you would care to send me additional information and or pictures I will be glad to try to help you.

Thank you for the question.

Dwight, you didn't say if you wanted wiring for a single neck guitar, or a double neck.

Double neck...go here and use the first diagram.

If you have a single neck...go here

I think he means the 'volume' and' tone' pot on the Classic at the back of the guitar?

Scuze me Dwight....certainly not your fault, I don't know what made me think you were looking for a wiring diagram for an expression pedal.

In about 1979 we stopped installing volume and tone controls because no one wanted them. The general consensus was, they altered the tone.

Sorry but MSA copies of the wiring diagrams of 3 decades ago are long gone. I do however think you can find someone who will install them for you.

I apologize for my mistake.

I think I can "make it fit" Surprised I do electo-ronics so I believe I can manage I guess. I will try my best. Confused

Thanks
