Hi all, recently acquired an Eko guitar from 1963 with a similarly vintaged pickup on it.
The tone pot was dead though, like completely cut off from all the wires... I've bought a new pot, but just don't know what to connect to what!
Never seen a pickup like this one before. Had a look on some pickup wiring sites but couldn't find something I recognised.
Couple of pictures below...

Black and yellow wire would seem to lead out to the input jack, there's obviously the resistor wire, and finally the earth wire.
Hope someone can help me figure this out - it needs to be fixed within the next week!!
Thanks so much.
