 Ready Built up Gibson Les Paul Wiring upgrade / Wiring Loom

   Pots: Medium Length Shaft (10mm thread length) - See notes below
Switch: Long version as Standard (38mm Depth) - See notes below

These wiring looms are Individually hand-wired from UK-sourced genuine parts using 22 gauge Gavitt vintage cloth covered wire. A drop in replacement and a great performance and reliability upgrade for all Les Pauls. Top quality matched components are used throughout and the "float wire" method is adopted where all wires are pulled tight and elevated so they make no contact with the control /baseplate. It takes a little longer to build but is definitely worth the effort to maximise performance

Incorporates:

  • Matched* CTS USA Custom Audio Taper 500K Split Shaft Volume & Tone Potentiometers - smooth linear volume and tone change (no bunching or on/off effect)
  • 0.022uF Sprague "Orange Drop" Tone Capacitors** - removes the thinness and harshness inherent with budget capacitors
  • Premium quality SwitchCraft / High quality import and No Switch option
  • Quality Jack Socket
  • Bridge earth wire supplied with heatshrink tube to twist join with exiting earth, solder and insulate
  • Easy to follow colour coded wiring diagram

Fully soldered together and includes all nuts screws and washers ready to fit to your guitar. Fitting requires only basic skills and 4 solder connections which are pre-tinned: Solder the black (Negative) pickup wires to the back of the Volume pot and the white (positive) wires to the colour coded switch terminals

Pots shaft length: Medium 10mm shafts are OK for most non-Gibson guitars. Please see other "Long shaft" listing if you require 18mm shafts

Switch height: If your Guitar will not accomodate this 38mm deep switch (eg Encore Les Paul), plase request "Short Switch" in message to seller during Paypal checkout


*      Matched in-house to within 10 Ohms  (CTS pots tolerance is +/- 20% so a 250K pot can vary from 200-300 Ohms)
