2014 S2 Singlecut wiring question

[teratotality]

Hiya!

So I bought a singlecut a little bit ago, which came with SD Black Winter pups but I don't really care for them. Since the previous owner included the original pickups too, I'm attempting to swap them out and I had a question.

I'm following this diagram I found a link to:
https://www.prsguitars.com/documents/prs_s2_singlecuts_wiring_schematics.pdf


Here is a pick of the bridge, I'm not sure if I'm suppose to remove the wire where the red X is or not. Green/white should go on the bottom right pole, which is why I ask about the removal of the X. This is paralleled with the neck pot as well.

Tried to add this to the post but I kept getting an error.

Here is the wires from the pups:

Let me know if you need more info or additional pictures. I didn't post the volume pots because they were prewired to the switch and are working fine and I wanted to save room in the post.

Thanks!!

One last question I forgot to include. The bare and black wires are tapped off together, do they stay taped off or does it need to be soldered to the top of the pot? I couldn't find the actual color codes for the PRS #7 pups.

Solder to the back of a pot. Those are the ground and shield wires. You can leave the heat shrink tubing on there.

Thanks so much Garrett! Now for strings and intonation!

Thanks so much! It's really an amazing guitar, definitely my most favorite. And that flame top is just nuts given its not a wood library or 10 top
