I went to help my nephew set up his ceiling speakers. We got 3 going with the amp but some of the rooms are not working. I am assuming they are wired together and have to be connected to the amp in a different way..

The question I have is that I installed new outdoor speakers but on one end of the deck, the wiring is looped back in and at the other end, it is not a loop. How the heck do I wire these to the amp? I'm assuming it is the same wire and I am supposed to just pigtail of the main speaker after cutting the loop. That didn't seem to work . Help!!!

I have a Miami blue professional II deluxe telecaster and I'm looking for a white pickguard. It's purely superficial but I'm not getting the Miami vibe from.the black pickguard. The regular Miami blue telecaster with the white pickguard looks cooler (in my opinion). I'm confused as to what pickguard will work with the professional II. I've seen some previous threads with similar questions but the links provided in the answers seem to have expired.

Any suggestions? I don't want to buy the wrong type. Bonus if the retailer is in Canada.

Thanks!
