Description

Hoagland Custom, located in sunny Fernandina Beach, Florida, has specialized in custom guitar wiring and pickup making for over 25 years…

& we love what we do!

This is a 2 humbucker Les Paul style harness. 2 volumes, 2 tones, setup to split both of your humbuckers at the same time by simply pulling up the neck volume pot.
It couldn’t be any easier!

You MUST have 4 or 5 wire humbuckers that are splittable to use this wiring harness.

It features 4 long-shaft pots and will drop right in to your Les Paul or your Les Paul style guitar.

It is “drop in ready”. That is, you only need to connect the pickups, switch, and ground wire… EASY!

While all of our wiring solutions are built to be installed rather easily, we always recommend that you have a guitar professional at your local guitar shop install it for you. There are issues that sometimes come up during installation (grounding, etc.) and your local guitar tech is equipped to diagnose & handle those for you.
