Wiring colors Sterling 5 Pickup

[ncross2008]

My preamp in my Sterling 5 crapped out on me so I am looking to replace the preamp and bypass using the switch as I always just run the bass in parallel like a standard stingray. I was wondering if anyone knew how to wire up a Sterling pickup with the 5 wires? Colors are Black, red, white, green and shielded.

I would contact EBMM customer service. They can probably help you with both the wiring and possibly fixing your preamp.

That was the first thing I did. Still waiting for some responses but I figured with this lovely forum as a resource someone may know. Appreciate the advice

Sterling single pup and switch wiring diagram help..?

Hi Some weird stuff going on with my Sterling wiring and need a diagram so my tech can fix it. I've searched here but cant find a wiring diagram for the bass. Any pointers to this would be massively appreciated, thanks. Bob

Thank you, I have the schematic but I need the color codes as I’m not using the stock preamp or switch

Same color code as DiMarzio, Red-black and white-green.
