Emerson Custom Les Paul long shaft 3/4-inch (19 mm) pre-wired kit (500k pots, 0.022 uf & 0.015 uf bumblebee capacitors), pre-wired kit, hand-wired in the USA; wired 50's style for authentic, vintage sound and feel. This is a pre-wired harness for USA Gibson Les Paul's. Carefully wired 50's style and grounded with vintage spec bus wire for a great vintage tone. For imported guitars you may need to enlarge the holes for the higher quality US spec electronics to fit. You may also need US spec knobs to accept 24-tooth split shafts. 4x 500K Emerson Pro Cts split shaft potentiometers. 1x Switchcraft J11 1/4-inch (6.4 mm) mono input jack. Made in the US. 2x Emerson Bumblebee paper in oil capacitors. 1x 0.022 microfarad bridge and 1x 0.015 microfarad neck. 1x wiring diagram. Pre-wired 3-way toggle switch available for an even easier installation. The overall tone gets stronger, tighter, and clearer. It's difficult to describe, but you might say it's more "in your face." The typical treble loss that occurs when rolling back the volume is much less than with standard wiring. Both the volume and tone controls become more responsive, and they react more smoothly without the usual hot spots. Another bonus: By simply rolling back your guitar volume a bit, you can clean up an over-driven amp without getting lost in the mix. The tone and the volume controls interact with each other; something you might be familiar with from certain tweed-era Fender tube amps. When you change the volume, the tone changes a little bit as well, and vice-versa. This may be strange at first, but you only need a few minutes to get used to it. Our Emerson Pro split shaft pots are made to fit USA Spec 24 spline push-on knobs. Some USA & imported guitars will need new USA spec knobs as even some US makers use import spec parts which will not work with our pots. We recommend that you don't rush the knob installation process.
