Why Choose 50’s Wiring?

Unlike modern wiring, the 50’s wiring scheme keeps your highs intact as you roll down the volume, giving you rich, articulate tones at any setting. This harness provides vintage Les Paul clarity and touch sensitivity, making it a must-have for players chasing authentic golden-era sound.

Perfect for those who want their Les Paul to respond like the classics—dynamic, expressive, and full of character.

Fitment Disclaimer:

This harness uses full-size CTS pots. Gibson Les Paul models are a direct fit, but many Epiphone and other imported Les Paul-style guitars use smaller metric-sized pots. In those cases, the control holes may need to be widened to ⅜" (9.5mm) to fit CTS pots. We recommend using a guitar tuner reamer for a clean and safe modification.
