Our guide to wiring the main controls of a Les Paul in the popular 50s style.
''50s'' style Les Paul wiring differs from typical modern day setups - simply a change in capacitor location.
In the 50s setup, the pickup is soldered alone to the volume pot whereas in the modern version it is soldered with the capacitor to the volume pot. This changes the output value and also acts somewhat as a treble bleed by maintaining the high end frequencies as the volume is rolled off.
This video shows only the initial Les Paul wiring harness (tone and volume controls, grounding and adding the capacitors) in the main control cavity of a Les Paul.
For toggle switch wiring and connecting the jack, please refer to our other videos in this series.
