MKII for Les Paul® (Vintage 50s & Modern 60s Wiring)

Super Easy, Solder-less Install
All Obsidian® Pro-Wired™ Electronics are super easy to install, and allow for solder-less pickup changes with Obsidian® Plug, Play & Enjoy connectors. 

"New for 2023 

Add the 'Dual 'Split Coil' Upgrade Option' - add a push/pull coil tap switch to each volume control. *Requires Compatible Split Coil (Four Conductor) Pickups"

The ObsidianWire™ Les Paul® Wiring Harness

The Obsidian® Vintage MKII for Les Paul® is a comprehensive upgrade over stock wiring, that also combines 'Vintage 50's' and '60's Plus' wiring in one product. You can choose between the vintage roll back of the traditional 'Vintage 50's' harness, and superior clarity of the more modern '60's Plus' wiring with the flick of the switch. 

You get a switch for each pickup, so if you want to run a 'Vintage 50's' setup on the neck pickup, and an Obsidian® '60's Plus' setup for the bridge pickup, YOU CAN.

We also give you the option to upgrade to 'DUAL SC (COIL SPLIT)' for even more versatility

'VINTAGE 50'S' MODE

Allow for some treble roll off when you roll back your volume control for an easy bridge between perfect warm cleans and searing leads.

The 'Vintage 50's' wiring mod is a super popular Les Paul wiring upgrade that reverts your stock LP wiring back to the glory days, and the beginning of the Vintage Les Paul. This is our most popular and personal favorite Les Paul wiring.

'60'S PLUS' MODE

Prevent treble loss when you roll back the volume for greater clarity and cut through at reduced volume levels.

The Obsidian® '60's Plus' wiring is made for clarity and cut through with an improved circuit that will help you retain treble at all volume levels.

DUAL SC (COIL SPLIT)

Turn your humbuckers in to single coils, and back again
To add true versatility to your guitar we build in Obsidian® Dual SC, allowing you to split each of your humbuckers in to singlecoils for lower output, more dynamic tones.

Obsidian® Dual SC is built in to your volume controls using push/pull pots, so no extra mods are required to your guitar.
- Requires split coil compatible humbuckers
