You should upgrade your pots and caps while you're at it.

 

No other change will improve the tone and usability of your SG for so little money.

 

You should get audio taper pots- 550K or greater for the volume pots, 500k for the tone pots, and .022uf paper in oil (PIO) caps.

 

You need short shaft pots for your SG.

 

There are 2 good sources that I use for pots and caps-

 

Wymore Guitars:

If you want to buy a pre-wired kit you should contact RS to make sure that they have it for your SG.

 

For less than $40 from Wymore, or a bit more from RS, you will make a huge difference in your SG.

 

These parts are far better than any pots/caps from Gibson.
