OK, before i let this thing slip any further (and before i move), i have to sort this out, at least the electrics. I'm afraid i'm being a complete dunce despite all your help:

Try tinning the ends of the winds letting the solder adhere well to the ends of the winds. You will need this later to attach the short leads anyway so it is not going to hurt anything as long as you are careful
OK, i'm gonna be able to tin the ends of the wires. What i dont understand is what i'm supposed to connect the soldered ends of the thin wires too. Do i insert a small lead between this end and the rest of the electrics, or do i solder (as seemed to be the original case) one of the thin wires to the copper baseplate of the pickup? I cant imagine that being too useful as it would make the whole copper plate "live" surely.
I'm sorry, as you can see i need idiot-proof step by step instructions. IF any of you are patient enough to help me out successfully, i'll give you a virtual mars bar.
