| Does anyone have a wiring diagram for the new style Goodrich (similar to the Dunlop) volume pot? |

If you hold it lugs facing you oriented so it looks like two eyes and a nose, the eye on your left is ground (its right) the eye on your right (its left) is the input, and the nose is the output.

| Thanks, Lane. Just to be sure does the output go the tip or sleeve terminal on the jack? |

The ground goes to sleeve. Because the sleeves are all common.
So the output goes to the tip, as does the input go to its tip.
If the instructions I was looking at have the wrong perspective on which is CCW and which is CW, you can fix it by just reversing the two connections at the guitar jack (or wind the string backwards).
EDIT for clarity: by "guitar jack" I mean the jack on the pedal that goes to the guitar.

Lane. . . guitar jack?
Roger,
I think Lane means reverse the two wires going to the outside lugs of the pot.
(the "left eye" and "right eye" as they're known in the electronics industry)

Reversing them at the jack going to the guitar accomplishes the same thing as reversing them at the pot.

Sorry Lane. . . but some of us might be confused and consider the "guitar jack" as the jack mounted on the guitar, and reversing the wires there may invite some serious hum.

When my guitar hums, I teach it the words.
