wolf1419 Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 Does anyone have a schematic or picture of wiring(switch, pickups, pots, grounding) on the 3 pickup model as it was originally wired. The one I got was all messed up and missing wires to mid pickup.......bad mod job......I want to get it back to original wiring....
charlie brown Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 Gibson and Seymour Duncan has a site with wiring schematic's. www.gibson.com Tech support 24/7, then wiring schematics....they've got them all www.seymourduncan.com/support/-wiring-diagrams OR... www.guitar-parts.com/images/lpcuston3pu.JPG (And, YES..custom is spelled custoN..for this webpage, for some reason.)

Muskank Sally Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 http://www.guitarelectronics.com/product/WDUHHH3T2201 Here's the one that was used for my SG Custom. It is the best one I've found for the 3 vol./ 1 tone config. (click on diagram to enlarge)

CB[/quote'] I think this ( http://www.gibson.com/Files/schematics/lpafwiring.gif ) is exactly what I'm looking for if I want to get it back to it's original state.........weird how the middle pickup doesn't wire to any of the pots(that's where some of my confusion was coming from), which probably explains that 3 Volume, 1 Tone Mod that many are doing, which does wire it to a pot(used as volume#3).......with 1 overall tone. Thanks Gas Jones for that site also..... I guess it's a matter of taste......but Gibson & Epiphone chose the Neck/Middle-Bridge/Bridge w/2 tones on the 3 pickup LP's, SG's, etc.................. The 3 volume version only has 1 pickup at any one time(Neck/Middle/Bridge)....correct...?(no pickup mixing unless you go with a 5 way switch, like a strat...................OR can you get Neck/ALL 3/bridge with the standard 3-way toggle and use individual volumes for blending ALL 3 at will in the middle position....?
Muskank Sally Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I sort of aborted the Gibson Schematics two years ago when all I could pull up was an ancient Custom diagram from 1972, and the diagram was basically unreadable. Glad they got some better ones up.
