Gibson SG Special faded

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone.

 

I decide to tune my guitar so I need an advbice. I have Gibson SG special faded (2010) with uncovered 490R/490T pickups and I would like to replace all four pots width 500kOhm push/pull pots according Jimmy Page Les Paul wiring diagram from original Gibson USA Schematic (March 27, 2002).

I wached few videos on Youtube about pickup wiring. When I look pots on my guitar behind the board I found all four pots fixed on black board with 3 plastic connectors and all of connections are on the other side of the board...

What can I expect when I take it out?

 

Thanx in advance.

Factory installed 490R/490T pick-ups in the SG Special have two conductor wires, so besides new push-pull pots, you would need pick-ups which have four conductor wires. You would pretty much be changing out all the electronics between the 3 way switch and the input jack.
