Can someone please look at this for me. I found this guitar in the back of a friends garage. It says 'Gilbert' on the headstock and has a 'LP-65' sticker where the neck is bolted on. Its a nice Les Paul replica. However, some of the wires are not connected. I have attached a picture of what it looks like. I cant seem to find a correct wiring diagram for this set up. Any help on where to connect these back together or info on the guitar itself would be appreciated. I have a attached a picture of the wiring.

The 2 right pots are tone I believe and the other 2 are volume with 2 humbuckers and a 3 way toggle switch. The top white and bottom red wires are what I am questioning. Thanks!!!!

White appears to be the common so I'm guessing its the ground wire to the back plate cover and probably contacted at the nearest screw hole, the red I think should go to the 1 tab on the lower tone pot and there should be a cap. in series there too.
