Upgrade your wiring and maximize your tone! This is a pre-wired harness for Gibson Les Paul guitars. With 50s style wiring the overall tone gets stronger and more transparent, so the notes seem to “open up”. 50s style wiring also reduces the loss of treble when rolling back the volume.
Our wiring harness are hand wired in our Amherst, NH shop. Using only the highest quality components. Hand selected and vintage correct.
