Hey everyone.
I posted a while ago about an Ovation Magnum i I was going to buy. Well that didn't go through. Anyway I just purchased a Magnum II. I want to change it to a I, so I still need a wiring diagram. Do you guys think the 4003 diagram will work?I also need the value of the caps that I need.
And one last thing that I'm having trouble with. I know to wire it with the dual output jacks that I need one stereo output jack and mono switching jack. The thing is when I look on mouser there are so many enclosed switchcraft jacks. I don't know which to order. Can anyone help with a enclosed mono switch jack part number or where I can get one.
If anyone knows where I can get an entire harness please let me know. It would probably be easier than having to hunt everything down.

Thanks
Ralph

I just found out that the cap for coupling the bridge pickup is 0.022uF. Do you guys think it's worth it to couple the bridge pickup anyway?
Anyone else have values for the other two tone caps?

Alright..update.
I love talking to myself.
I learned that Ovation used 500k volume pots and 250k tone pots.
Making progress! Still need the values on the caps.

Great job. You obviously managed to dig up some information that none of us were able to provide.
Well done!
