ToneShaper Guitar Wiring Kit, for Les Paul Standard (Modern Wiring)
ToneShaper Guitar Wiring Kit, for Les Paul Standard (Modern Wiring)
ToneShaper wiring kits for Gibson guitars are available in modern and vintage versions. The modern kits are a few bucks more as they include treble-bleed networks (resistor/capacitor in parallel) which may be installed if desired to address the problem of treble rolloff when using the volume controls. The vintage kits address the treble rolloff by wiring the tone controls a little differently.Of course, the treble rolloff doesn’t bother some people. And each method of addressing it carries pros & cons which are debated ad nauseum on the forum sites for your perusal. If you’re unsure about which way to go, buying the modern kit gives you the option to try both and see which you prefer.This kit includes everything you need to wire a Gibson Les Paul Standard, Custom, or Deluxe, or similar guitar.
