Remodding My 2013 Gibson Les Paul Traditional Part 2 of 3

 

So, I wasn’t prepared to actually do a part 2 for my previous blog of the same title, but in my hast, I discovered a few things that made me weigh out my options to remod my Les Paul much more (or less) than before.

initially, I wanted to go for the 50s wiring; really dig the tone. Wanted to change out the whole wiring harness in favor of getting as close to a ‘59 Les Paul as I could, mainly for the Bumblebee capacitors. Don’t get me wrong, I really like the tone I have, The capacitors that are installed in my LP are Russian PIO capacitors (.022uF 630V K40Y-9 paper in oil) the wiring configuration is that of the 50s wiring on the ‘59., I’ve had my LP for almost a year and I JUST discovered this. I guess the original owner had the same idea as I had.

The only other changes now are the hardware; Bridge, stop bar, tone and volume knobs, etc.
