Emerson USA '50s spec Long Shaft Les Paul replacement wiring harness
This is a prewired harness for USA Gibson® Les Paul® guitars (MFG# LP-BB-LONG-PREMIER). Carefully wired “50’s Style” and grounded with vintage spec buss wire for a great vintage tone. For import guitars you may need to enlarge the holes for the higher quality US spec electronics to fit and also you may need US Spec knobs (to accept 24 teeth split shafts).

(Pre-wired 3-Way Toggle Switch not included)

What’s so special about ’50s style wiring?

1. The overall tone gets stronger, tighter, and more transparent. It’s difficult to describe, but you might say it’s more “in your face.”

2. The typical treble loss that occurs when rolling back the volume is much less than with standard wiring. Both the volume and tone controls become more responsive, and they react more smoothly without the usual hot spots. Another bonus: By simply rolling back your guitar volume a bit, you can clean up an overdriven amp without getting lost in the mix.

3. The tone and the volume controls interact with each other—something you might be familiar with from certain tweed-era Fender tube amps. When you change the volume, the tone changes a little bit as well, and vice-versa. This may be strange at first, but you only need a few minutes to get used to it.

Installation Tips for Knobs on Split Shaft Pots

US Spec Emerson PREMIER PRO split shaft pots are made to fit USA Spec 24 spline push-on knobs. Some USA and import guitars will need new USA Spec Knobs as even some US makers use import spec parts which will not work with our pots. We recommend that you don't rush the knob installation process.
