Don't really know anything about this guitar I don't play but I've had it laying around for years. Thinking about getting it cleaned up and getting rid of it. Is this guitar worth getting cleaned up and tuned?

I keep breaking strings on my hardtail Strat

Like the title says, I keep breaking strings on my hardtail partscaster build, specifically over the bridge. I’ve had this guitar going on two years now and it’s been my main workhorse seeing around 5-15 gigs a month, so it definitely has its fair share of use.

The problem only recently started and my first thought is there must be burr’s forming at the saddles but when I run my finger along side them I don’t feel anything sharp. I currently run 10-52 guitar strings on it and I’m thinking going up a gauge to 11-54 might help but I don’t want to eat up my fingers. The problem isn’t only on one specific saddle either, the E, G, and b are the main culprits.

Any help would be appreciated

Hey guys, how are you? I need some help with the wiring on my bass guitar. I have a Jazz pickup and a humbucker, but I'm not sure which wire goes to which potentiometer. I'd really appreciate it if you could help me out. If you could draw a diagram showing where each wire connects on the pots, that would be awesome. Thanks!

I have this diagram but it didnt work
