Possibly the most helpful guitar wiring video I've seen. At least when measured with a helpful info x video length ratio.

You described it so simple. Even I (someone who has no idea about the electronic at all) understood it. Now I can use the infos to wire my guitar

This is the most precise explanation that I've seen on output jacks. Thanks for making it clear and straight to the point. I feel like I've got a college degree in "Output Jacks" now after being puzzled by them for years. Well done!

Even with your help it still took me nearly a couple of hours. My jack was similar to the gold one near the end of the video and being a sealed unit it was impossible to figure out the connections with a multimeter. With you telling me that the short one was 'hot' and the big one 'ground' made it a lot clearer. So many thanks.
