HI everyone, please help...I recently got the kerry king set for my son for his Ibanez IC400. The tech who was supposed to put them into the ic400 absolutely butchered the inside so I had to buy soldering iron and do myself. I've been successful in some bits but I cannot find a single diagram to show me how to wire the kerrykings emgs into the iceman. The diaagram that came with the set was useless and only for 1 volume 1 tone and didn't show where the blue wires from the 3way switch that is part of the IC400 had to be wired into this EMG set. Also when I opened the 3 way back the tec had disconnected the wiring here and I haven't a clue which wires go where???? There are the 2 blue wires, 2 thin white wires and a brown wire which I assume is earth/ground. If someone could help me out I would really appreciate it as I up to now have it wired some way that it works but no toggle swicth and loads of fuzziness which lasts 2 sec after he plays any notes.
I don't want messages to get it to a guitar doc;-) I can do this myself if someone shows me a diagram of how it is supposed to be wired as the emg website has not got one single diagram which includes 2 tone 2 volume and the brown and 2 white wires coming form the toggle switch. Oh yes the kerry kings also hav a nice little booster..if you can include this in the diagram that would be fantastic. please help..nails bitten to flesh!!!

The IC400 is basically wired like a Les Paul, so all you need is EMG's Zakk Wylde wiring diagram.

This will give you everything you need to know.
Start from scratch and follow the instructions and toy can't go wrong
