I have just installed 2 Les Paul MK II Split Coil harnesses into 2 different Les Pauls. I have found the easy to install. Do not have the need to wire in cable adapters into harness as pickup change is easy and can be done quickly compared to having to desolder and solder new pickups.
Also very articulate and have the ability to change between 50's and 60's wiring with the flick of a switch
I replaced an active preamp with passive switch on my favorite 5-string jazz and this thing sounds so good. More articulate and open sounding vs. how it sounded with the pre bypassed. My bass, a BassMods K534 is known in gospel and funk for a hi-fi jazz sound and super easy playability. However, I'm a rootsy reggae/jazz/soul player and wanted to capture the classic jazz tone for mostly finger styling playing with flatwounds - installing this pre-amp did it. This gives me a modern, super easy playing 5-string with a rich jazz bass tone with more clarity and range through the 2 volumes and single tone knob. I like modding basses but soldering is something I struggle with. I'm all thumbs when it comes to wiring but I was able to do it with some trial and error in under an hour. If my pickups had more identifiable wiring, it would've taken me alot less - not the fault of the harness. Those instructions were clear and the unit is super solid.
Ultimate wiring JP mod for my Les Paul.Love the push-pull controls &onboard effects,with the switchable 50's or 60's wiring, there's a lot to play with,i just love it! Thank you Obsidian Wire guess you love guitars to. Michael.
First time I’ve ever wired anything up — outside of my ol’ lady — and I gotta say, same result: I was awesome! The Obsidian Vintage Plus for Strats made me better than I am. Now my homemade Strat ( Van Halen look, but with wood inlays) has electricity, and I can make her scream too!
