WhiteRaven Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 The new 08 Les Paul Standards have a similar "circuit board" electronics configuration, I guess they decided to port it over to the SG as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plank_Spanker Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I'm hearing that the pots are "plug in" and not soldered to the board. Is that correct? Sure looks soldered from the pic.................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteRaven Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 The computer-esque plug-in system is interesting though. Couldn't you just pick up the connectors at Radio Shack, attach them to the end of the pickup wire, and change pickups in a snap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
