Replacing with Dimarzio 4-conductor wired

[NeglectedField]

First off I assume the wiring diagram given on the US site is correct. Mine's a RG7321 with the same 5-way switching as the normal 5-way stuff and I'm changing the bridge pickup. What I want to know is do Dimarzio pickups' wires have the same colours as the stock Ibanez ones and if not, what colours correspond to which colour on the stock Ibanez ones?

I'll only have two days to change the pickup assuming it finally arrives on Wednesday so I take it it's just a matter of soldering in the wires the way the original pickups were soldered in?

from memory - if im wrong someone will correct me ! and this is assuming that the pups on your 7 string have the same wire colours as the Vx pups.

Black and white - wired together to where the white wire was on the stock pup.

Red - goes where the red wire from the stock pup went

green and braid both to ground.. (the back of the pots)

thats all I did in the past with dimarzio's

I just installed a pair of Blazes, and for straight-up installation (no tapping, phasing, etc.), I followed the instructions on the website and it was like what the guy explained above, except you wire the black and white together and tape it off (don't connect it to anything).

The whole black/white cable thing confuses me, I should hope it becomes clearer at the time!
