Wiring HARNESS Les Paul Woman Tone

The Kit has the classic 50's Wiring, but is also available with Modern Wiring, and a 0.015 uf Bumblebee repro capacitor for the neck pickup, and a 0.022 uf cap for the bridge pickp.

What's the difference between Gibson 50's vs. Modern Wiring?

50's Wiring

•     when turning down the Volume more heights are remaining
•     a turn of the Tone also affects the Volume
•     with the Volume fully turned up there's a little more clarity and output

Modern Wiring

•    better Volume control
•    turning the Tone does not change the Volume
•    significant loss of height when turning down the Volume (can be reduced with a Treble Bleed)

If you want to completely replace the wiring of your Les Paul, we also have the matching prewired 3-Way Toggle Switch from Switchcraft on offer.

WHICH POTS AND WHICH SWITCH IS THE RIGHT ONE?

There are countless Les Paul models, and there are always more. In the different models different toggle switches and pots are used. All LP models with curved top until 1977 have short pots and a long toggle switch. For the most common models since 1977 we have compiled a small overview below. To mount the long switch in the Les Paul you also need a "Deep Round Nut". The Deep Round Nut extends the otherwise too short thread of the switch, and must be ordered separately.

Models since 1977     Switch     Pots      
Standard                     long        long
Studio                         short       long
Traditional                    long        long
Custom                       long        long
Special                        short       short
