Description: **Welcome to Tone Man Guitar** Tone Man Guitar prewired kits will improve your guitars performance. Notes are tighter, open and with more clarity. Tone / volume controls are responsive and smoother. Kits are hand built wired with quality and pride like they did back in the 50s and 60s.Our Blues LP series uses the better Paper-In-Oil K42Y aged tone caps giving excellent clean clarity with vintage woody blues tones. It is easy to dial in some nice grit tone with your guitar and amp controls. Good for all genres of music and all type of pickups. Best choice for P90s. Great for rock and blues. This Kit Is For:USA Gibson Les Paul manufactured from 1977 to present using long shaft pots. Always best to measure the pot bushing (threaded part of shaft only) to be sure. Long = 3/4 inch Short = 3/8 inch.What's In The Blues Kit:Bourns Pro Audio 500K Long Shaft Coarse Spline 18 teeth Audio Taper pots with Brass BushingsSwitchcraft 3-Way Short Toggle Switch Pre-wired with Gavitt Braided Vintage Wiring Black tip included3" Shrink TubingPaper-In-Oil .033uf K42Y-2 Vintage bridge tone cap.Paper-In-Oil .015uf K42Y-2 Vintage neck tone cap.

Our kits work. T Tone Cap Options: We recommend the cap values that come standard with this kit for the very best Gibson style vintage but if you prefer any of the below tone cap options add a note to the order when purchased and I will substitute if I have that cap value in stock. .022uf bridge / .015uf neck Listen to a demohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNyGVZdggcg I personally prefer Bourns potentiometers over all other brands including CTS. I have found them to be smoother, responsive and longer lasting. The very best taper available. These pots are 18 teeth coarse spline shaft so USA type knobs will not fit without first pinching the top of the split shaft together a little and slowly push the knob on. Epiphone and off shore type will fit fine. We do offer a line of knobs that fit. Need New Knobs?

Your installation instructions will cover this. If you have questions feel free to email me.**If you are not sure whether your guitar uses short (3/8") or long (3/4") shaft pots please check before ordering. Normally Pre-1977 Gibson Les Paul's, All Epiphone's, SG's use short shafts. USA made Gibson's after 1976 use long shaft pots. Although these harnesses are pre-assembled and tested they do require some soldering to connect the pickups and the output jack. A 30 – 40 watt soldering iron is recommended. Make sure you are comfortable with making these connections or we suggest you take this to a qualified guitar tech to complete the installation. I can not be responsible if you damage a unit. Each harness is custom built after purchase so my lead time to build your harness before shipping is 7 to 12 business days. In stock means I have the parts to build. You will receive a notice with USPS tracking number once shipped. Tone Man Guitar started from my own passion for music, knowledge of electronics and the love of great vintage guitar tone. I am a one man shop, do all the work myself and I guarantee the very best workmanship around. I want you to be Satisfied. Cheers,Gary StanderferTone Man Guitar
