Can anyone tell me what the black, red and white wires map to as far as ground, hot and coil split.

 

Actually, any information would be greatly appreciated. I have emailed Gibson about 3 times on this subject to no avail. Thanks!

I believe the humbuckers in the L6-S were designed and built by Bill Lawrence. You may want to try his website.

 

Generally accepted standard wire color code would mean white-common (ground), black-hot one coil, red-hot the other coil. Strap red and black together and you have a humbucker.

 

Maybe these will help, right off the GIBSON website:
