The neck pickup only p90 equipped LP flat top has suddenly started playing up. It's really quiet but can be temporarily "fixed" by tapping the pickup. I know very little about guitar wiring but can solder and have the tools to do so but am concerned that I could make the situation worse. Is it worth giving it a go knowing that I could take it to a tech to put right or should I just go to the tech straight off the bat?

Also where would be a good place to find wiring diagrams for such stuff?

I'm very much inclined to have a go myself before spending money, especially as it sounds like it might be a loose connection. There's no harm in having a look for anything obviously dodgy.

Most of the online retailers have wiring diagrams e.g. https://sixstringsupplies.co.uk/pages/guitar-wiring-diagrams

Cheers, I normally dive in and have a go at fixing things without thinking much with (usually) good results but........ never had to do it with my guitars before. Being able to find a wiring diagram makes the thought much less daunting.
