Then soldered the wiring correct( according to a you tube video) but now the guitar( my first one as I am a beginner 60 year old) won't play. Did I short something out? The only wiring schematic I can find is a drawing that doesn't clearly show how the jack is wired. I have ordered a new switchcraft jack( i live in Mexico, or I would just take it and have it repaired) and want to to know how to properly wire it.
Your help is greatly appreciated!

There is a small wire wired from one tab ( ground i guess ) and the other tab ( positive?) which doesn't appear on any videos I have seen on you tube ( they are wiring a Les Paul)
Thanks
