Gibson Les Pauls of the late 1950s had some really special features that contribute towards their long-standing status as true kings of guitar tone. One element of that is the way that their volume and tone controls were connected. In this video we go into how that differs from the modern way of wiring and what effect it has on your sound.
For the demonstration, we used a custom Daemoness single cut daemonessguitars.co.uk
loaded with our Steve Stevens signature "Rebel Yell" humbuckers www.bareknucklepickups.co.uk/pickup/humbucker/rebel-yell
Custom CTS 550K pots www.bareknucklepickups.co.uk/shop/product/bare-knuckle-cts-550k-potentiometer-long-shaft-1
and BKP/Jensen paper in oil tone capacitors www.bareknucklepickups.co.uk/shop/product/bare-knuckle-jensen-capacitor
That was running straight into an Elmwood Modena M90 head, into a Greenback loaded Hughes & Kettner straight 4x12 and captured with an SE X1R ribbon microphone.
