Bob C Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Hi, I just bought a 1990 Gibson ES335. It is absolutely killer but I think something might be wrong with the wiring. When the toggle switch is in the middle position, I don't really hear a difference when I turn either of the pickups down and when I turn (either) one all the way down, the guitar is now muted. Is this normal for 90's wiring? Every other Les Paul that I've owned, if I had it in the middle position and turned the neck pickup all the way down, I still 100% bridge pick up just as if I was in the bridge position on the toggle. Thanks! Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob C Posted November 13, 2020 Author Share Posted November 13, 2020 Someone just told me its the difference between 50s wiring and Modern wiring. Can anyone confirm that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
