Please read the following before you order: As a general rule post-1977 production Les Paul's (with a control plate), excluding historic reissue Les Paul's, use long shaft pots. If you are uncertain whether your guitar uses short (3/8") or long (3/4") shaft pots, please double check before you order. All parts in this kit use imperial (not metric) sizing. If you own an imported guitar (e.g. Japan, China, Mexico, etc.), the pots, switch, and jack in this kit will not fit your guitar without enlarging the openings. The switchcraft toggle switch comes standard with a flat nut, depending on the thickness of the body of the guitar (this includes most Les Pauls), you may need to use the "vintage-style" deep nut that is also included in this kit. Returns are only accepted on this item if parts are unused.

Easy to install. Sounds much better than the stock wiring in the guitar.

This is a do it yourself harness so you have to know how to solder. The wiring diagram is good, but you need to look at several wiring diagrams to figure it out. My pickups had 4 wires so I had to follow another wiring diagram. But if you don't have 4 wire pickups you should be ok with the supplied one. You get everything you need in the kit. All the parts are really good quality. So if you want to upgrade and have the skill this kit is half the price or less than the already wired harnesses.

1 - includes Deep nut for 3 way toggle switch, that alone is worth 10 bucks2 - Pots have 2 nuts, makes them adjustable another 10 bucks3 - some grounding wire, cloth and bare. perfect.Now if they could find some smaller capacitors, lol. Great purchase overall!

Everything needed to wire up a Les Paul. Be aware if you are using this on a Chinese Epiphone. You will need to enlarge pot holes and switch hole. The switch barely fits inside the Epi body. High quality parts.

I needed a harness for my les Paul (replacing the pcb assembly that makes it very hard to swap pickups etc). This kit was great, nicely packed, recurved quickly, all quality components, (CT’s, switchcraft, Vishnu) The deep toggle nut as mentioned by another reviewer was a big plus. The Art of Tone does a great job and sells good stuff for a reasonable price.

Put this harness together and installed it in non-Gibson guitar , with the right pick-ups it sounds just like a Gibson !!!!
