Hello All!
I'm in love with my 1960 Reissue GIBSON Les Paul Classic, but NOT in love with the stock humbucker pickups.
Neck = Gibson 496R, Bridge = Gibson 500T.
Way too hot for my tastes. http://www.gibson.com/files/_gear/pickups_output-chart.jpg
I would like to:
i) change out the 496R and replace it with a single coil P90, or P94R.
ii) change out the 500T and replace it with a '57 Classic Humbucker, or Burstbucker Pro.
Some of you have made the connection already, for those that haven't; I'm looking to mod my Les Paul Classic to have the Les Paul BFG pickup configuration. (Except the BFG has a Zebra Burstbucker 3 in the Bridge).
Does anyone know how I can do this? The soldering part is easy enough, it's just a matter of "which wire goes where?".
Any help will be appreciated! Thanks!
P.S. When this mod is complete, the 496R and 500T will be posted for sale in this forum. Stay Tuned!
Regards,
