Welcome To Tone Man GuitarTone Man Guitar pre-wired 50's wiring kits will improve your guitars overall tone. Your sound will be stronger, tighter and improved clarity. Notes will open up with greater sustain. Tone and Volume controls are very responsive and smoother. By rolling back your volume some you can clean up an over driven amp. One of my favorite things is the elimination of much of the treble loss when you roll the volume down. All kits are carefully custom hand wired to order. Only the best quality parts are used including vintage Gavitt cloth push back wire just like they used back in the 50’s and 60’s. You will not find a better a better product or selection.
The 59 Les Paul Kit uses Paper In Oil K40Y vintage tone caps for improved overall performance. Excellent clarity, aged vintage warm and woody tones with improved sustainability. These caps are better than Bumble Bee or Vitamin Q's. We have found no better cap. All wired 50's style with premium new components that perform better than the stock electronics found in today's guitars. You will hear and feel the difference.

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
Each harness is custom hand assembled after purchase so my
lead time to build your kit before shipping is 5 to 10 business days depending on my back log of kits
.
In stock quantity means I have the parts to build that quantity of kits. You will receive a USPS Ship Tracking number once shipped.
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 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.

If you have an imported / outside of USA manufactured guitar you may need to modify the potentiometer holes to 3/8 inch to accommodate the full size Bourns pots. Your installation instructions will cover this. If you have questions feel free to email me.
