As a person who hates soldering and who wants premium parts in my guitar, I got the 4-way tele solderless system and it’s really easy to use and convenient to switch out pickups. Really love the creativity on this and I hope ObsidianWire continues innovating amazing products with more varieties.
I've done a lot of standard wiring myself, but whenever I get into the mods I end up screwing something up and having a guitar sitting around for 3 months unplayable until I spend the time to troubleshoot. This time I splurged on this and it was so worth it. Its very high quality, fit perfectly in my guitar and was literally installed in about 15-20 minutes from start to finish. I have an old MiM 50s Strat that is sentimental to me so I've updated the pickups Fender Original 57/62's with the Obsidian electronics and it sounds incredible plus has this cool Gilmore trick now.
I’ve had two Obsidian Telecaster harnesses for the same Tele and I’ve been really impressed by the ease of installing and the quality of the work from Obsidian….however….Ive had two faulty CTS volume pots. I’m ordering up a couple of spare pots. If CTS are the best on the market, the markets broken itself.
I will however reiterate, Obsidian are great. Good customer service too.
I bought the loaded pick guard to upgrade my old Squier Strat, which I have had for over 15 years but was getting a bit tired. The package came with extraordinary speed from NZ to the UK. The install was amazingly quick and the no-soldering electronics worked seamlessly. The guitar looks and sounds reborn. Couldn't be happier with it. Thanks Obsidian wire!
