Ok, you need to figure out what you want those tone pots to do. As is, they are just wired in series, kind of in a funny way, and i can't quite tell what the volume pot is doing, the way it is wired it looks like it is just acting as a resistor. When straying from a diagram, you really need to have some understanding of what these circuits are and how they work. A potentiometer is just a variable resistor, and we can wire it up in different ways to get different functions, a volume pot is wired in such a way that when all the way "off", the signal sees no resistance to ground, and when all the way "on", there is the maximum resistance to ground. Tone controls are similar, high frequencies find it easier to travel through a capacitor than low frequencies, a tone control is wired so that when turned down, the high frequencies see less and less resistance to ground, and are bled off, the low frequencies have a hard time getting through the capacitor, and remain in the signal path.
Start with what you want your tone controls to do, i would probably use the first tone pot for the neck and middle pickups, and the second for the bridge pickup, although that may not be what you want. If you want the tone pots to act independently of each other they need to be placed before the volume pot, because as it is you are summing the signal from all the pickups before they enter the tone controls. Trace the signal path, pickup -to- switch -to- tone pot -to- volume pot -to- jack, or your variation of that.
If you have a multimeter, it is worth your time to use it to check out what the pots do, it all starts to make more sense that way.
Let us know what you want from it and someone can maybe even sketch up a quick diagram for you. Hope this helps, sorry if it is long winded or unhelpful, i understand this stuff well enough to get it to work for me, but find it very hard to explain.

Don't know exactly what I did, poked and prodded a bit more and it worked.
