Gibson '57 Classic Pickup Installation
Installed this pickup into an Epiphone Les Paul Pro and had a ball with it. It turned a good guitar into a great guitar. If you play classic rock, this is the pickup to have!
Awesome sounding pick-ups!
These pick-ups came to me from a friend who's Ibanez guitar took a bad drop down some stairs & he gave me the pick-ups as I own the same model as he did but he is elsewhere now & I wanted to hear from the comment here how to install these as the stock pick-ups have a red, white & then the grounding on metal but these have a inner black coated wire with the braided outer so is the… read more black hot & braided ground?
