This kit makes it easy to order premium components for wiring many 2-control / 2-pickup guitars with a 3-way switch, such as Gibson®, Epiphone® and Samick®.
Complete with wiring diagram, this kit features trusted components used for decades in iconic American instruments, such as Switchcraft toggle switch and jack, CTS potentiometers, Orange Drop capacitors and cloth-covered push-back wire.
Be sure your control knobs will fit: CTS pots in this kit have fine-knurled (24-spline) split shafts. Coarse-knurled knobs for imported Alpha pots won't fit.
