iLLusionsOfZEN Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Hi all, first post and I couldn't find a similar thread in the search and Google has not been kind! I've got a 2017 Les Paul Standard HP and I wish to change the stock pickups to Bare Knuckles, 4 conductor. Ceramic nailbomb in the bridge and cold sweat in the neck. The BB Pros are excellent for rock but I need the metals. Now my issue...it's all upside down and back to front!! Converting the two manufacturers colour codes to match the coils start/finish and I'm getting all sorts of weird stuff and not the switching options as usual. I've tried a number of different routings with the quick connect converters and the closest I got was the switching working correctly but the pots were in the pulled position for normal operation, then pushed in for things like coil splitting. I believe it's because the HP burstbuckers are reverse wound/reverse polarity (stated on the specs page). Is there a wiring option that will get me normal operation or will the Bare Knuckles need the magnets reversing? Thanks for reading, thanks for any help :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
