Wiring Harness 7-Way Gilmour STRATOCASTER
STRATOCASTER 7-WAY GILMOUR Mini Switch Prewired Kit
This kit has an additional mini switch like the original Gilmour Wiring. The mini switch allows two more interesting positions in addition to the usual standard positions. When the Mini Switch is switched, all three pickups are active in position 4 (normally middle and bridge) and the neck and bridge pickup in position 5 (normally bridge only). As long as the switch remains in the normal position, the circuit behaves like a standard 5-Way circuit. The kit is equipped with a Treble-Bleed Mod.

Why a Prewired HArness from Arty's Custom Guitars?
BECAUSE WE ARE ONLY SATISFIED WITH THE BEST.
All our prewired kits have matched pots and caps. This means that we measure all potentiometers and capacitors before installation, select them, and use them according to their values where they
deliver the best possible result in combination with the pickups. This is important because original pots have tolerances of up to +-20%. In extreme cases, a 500k pot can have values of only 400k
or up to 600k ohms. Not infrequently good pickups are replaced unnecessarily, because they sound muddy, weak or thin. In reality, however, the problem is often not due to bad pickups, but simply
to inferior wiring, which mercilessly destroys the actually perfect sound.
We compared enormous quantities of capacitors in interaction with various pickups and thus determined the most suitable tone caps under real conditions. The capacitors are hand-selected HQ film
capacitors with very low tolerance, very similar in design to the originals from the fifties. The vintage paper wax skin gives the caps an additional look. Our capacitors are so close to the
originals of the 50's that nobody will hear a difference.
In all our kits only the best components from well-known manufacturers like CTS, Switchcraft, CRL or Oak Grigsby are used. All kits are carefully manufactured in small quantities and
professionally handcrafted, and delivered to satisfied customers all over the world.
