Easily connect your 57 Classic, Dirty Fingers, Burstbucker 3, Throbak, and other compatible pickups to Gibson Les Paul and SG electronic control boards (2012-era and newer) with these adapters.

Installation tips:
Using these adapters requires some basic understanding on the basics of guitar wiring. When installing your new pickups with the quick-connect adapter, follow these quick steps:
- Match Wire Colors: Connect the pickup wires to the adapter harness by matching them color-for-color.
- Test Before Soldering: To verify everything works, tightly twist the wire connections together by hand. Slide the heat-shrink tubing over each temporary joint, ensuring absolutely no exposed wires touch each other or the cavity shielding. Test the guitar through an amp to confirm your signal and switching.
- Watch Pickup Orientation: Physical orientation is critical. To avoid unwanted out-of-phase issues, ensure the neck and bridge pickups are facing opposite directions (typically, the adjustable screw coils face outward toward the neck and bridge, while the solid slug coils face inward toward each other).
