@@joeyskar yeah, I am aware. I bought a pack of 20 from electric supply shop. If Gibson offers their pups with a clean factory quick connect, more people with the pcb will be inclined to buy Gibson branded pups. This will give them an edge over DiMarzio and others by making it way easier to drop in as opposed to having to break out a soldering iron every time. I know it's not impossible to work around the Quick Connect system but, it makes things so much easier. It's right in the name, quick connect. I would probably buy three different sets or at least 3 bridge pickups from gibson if they implemented it. If I have to do surgery I might as well buy some bare knuckles.
Thank you Jim! I always love to see this video series as they are informative and show good technique. It’s all about the sound, and what a great sound Les Pauls have!
Thank you Gibson for making the world's best sounding pickups available at the Gibson pickup shop and retailers. One small step for man and one giant leap for mankind ❤🚀
Great job Jim alot of great info here on the wiring the pickup ring stuff to me is common sense but then everyone doesn't have that. Thanks for posting
Super useful to recall and analyze my BLACK SG of Gothic Honor will thank me soon for it and thank you Gibson for so many decades of epic Guitar revolution i may Not agree with the whole Overpriced protocol for most of your instruments but a sane man got to always have appreciation for the good mix of Beauty and quality in their beloved instruments 🖤
Peter green reversed the neck pickup not the bridge one. Not sure why you are indicating he reversed the bridge pickup? The bridge pickup was always in standard orientation. The reason he "flipped " the neck pickup around was the magnet was installed backwards after the pickup was rewound so it was out of phase with the bridge one.
@@joeyskar Peter green only reversed the orientation of the neck pickup. The bridge pickup was always in standard orientation. The reason he "flipped " the neck pickup around was the magnet was installed backwards after the pickup was rewound so it was out of phase with the bridge one.
@@These_go_to_eleven_1959 I knew something was up with it. I wonder if Gibson replicated that with the Gary Moore signature guitars. I had a 2013 on for awhile but I never noticed a significant difference with the neck pickup vs. my other Les Pauls with various Burstbucker pickups. So far the only guitar I've ever found that really nails that sound is my Teye Apache.
@@joeyskar I am not sure If gibson did it with the PG les paul but i really hope so for the money they sell for. Here is the thing if you just reverse the pickup there will be no difference, you have to take out the magnet of the neck pickup and flip it 180 degee's and re-insert the magnet that way. Then reinstall the p'u in reverse. that should get you that out of phase "quack" tone Peter green had. I get it no prob regardless of what model humbucker doing it this way.
I own a Gibson Flying V 1976. I am having a tone issue with the pickup angles that are mounted on the pickguard. How can I make the pick-up parallel to the strings?
You are the person to ask; can the bobbins be unscrewed from the baseplate and remounted on the "Flip-side" of the base-plate so that the little wings used for the height adjust could be used as mounts on a "Dogear" P90 routed Guitar. I have a 335P90 custom shop and wanted to try putting fullsize humbuckers on it without routing? Any info would be valued. Thanks.
Help. What is the color combo on epiphone lespaul pickups. So when and if you have to solder them. So gibson vs epiphone lespaul. Humbucker pickup color combination for wiring guitars. Can't find correct one.. thx
Please put some sort of protection on the back of the guitar while you are soldering close to it. This prevents solder splattering on the guitar or flux splattering as seen here.
if the pots on the guitars are vintage 50s tapper gibson should definitly sell the 4 counductor quick connect adapters i had to rewire 2 of my gibsons just to change the pickups and get an elder 57 classic or even seymour duncan
It’s interesting how factually incorrect rumors spread so easily in the guitar world. It’s fifth year of the current line, yet the quick connect rumor is still around. And for the record, I had a friend that constantly complained about the quick connect in his 2017 Gibson. I offered to remove the quick connect and hand wire his guitar. Tuned out, he didn’t notice any tonal difference after the change, except he lost all the cool features the circuitboard offered.
the horror story about him tinkering with his sg n the springs flying out n not being able to put it back together n having to learn on his own is the exact reason i dont mess with mine or am scared to lol
He interrupts himself over and over... just show in 1 smooth explanation what to do. Fellows who do NOT know what to do should not have to follow your repeated interruptions.
OMG! why are you clipping perfectly good strings? Just unwind and take them off the tuners! There are starving children is West Virginia and Kentucky who could use those strings...
As I'm getting ready to watch this video I was thinking why doesn't Gibson do a Dave Meneketti les Paul he was Rockin a les Paul in Y&T Long before Slash was so I wish Gibson would show what a great guitarist Dave is and do a Meneketti les Paul I think it's a 68' ? Les Paul but he's played the shit out of his check out some clips of him still playing his guitar I don't think Murphy lab could match the wear and tear on that Gibson lol oh well just my thoughts on what would be a sign of respect to a great guitarist and singer he is
@@MrAcEsNeIgHtS1188 I'm going to see them new years eve this year lost the count of the times I've seen them 1st time was new years eve 82'? At the cowpalace in SF Gamma with Ronnie Montrose also played that night great show
Btw I got my first Gibson last year, a les Paul standard in sherry burst great fkn guitar I know why Rockers play Gibson's now even though they play different guitars on stage but les Paul's in the studio,George Lynch has been playing les Paul's on stage lately
Jim is brilliant. He absolutely loves Gibson Guitars and it is really infectious, well done :)
You’re an awesome teacher Jim, clearly explained and didn’t sound condescending. More please!
Dear Gibson, please offer quick connect options for your pickups. You will sell more pick-ups. Thanks
There's quick connect kits that you can get to convert any pickup to work with their system. I converted some Dimarzios and it worked great.

was the magnet was installed backwards after the pickup was rewound so it was out of phase with the bridge one.
"Humbucker Helper," genius. 😊
I really like those tubed screw drivers, great idea! What tubing did you used for that?
I thought Peter Green's neck pickup was wound differently and had to be installed "upside-down" for it to sound properly.

You're a great teacher man..amazing
Do a video on installing pickup covers, the Gibson way!
Thank you. Great information.
How about a video on how to do it on a semi hollow body?
Question I have a classic LP ‘22 what pick ups did he changed them to? I love the covered pick ups look
Does anybody know?
0:45 "its very simple, however its tricky", man make up your mind :O
Its simple for him but tricky for people that are new to doing the installation.

Mr. DeCola the Professionell Man!
you need to do pickups on a 335 next...! :~)
Trying to install humbuckers and two those springs already missing somewhere in house. The most horrible task ever. :D

love my lpb-2. put some schaller top hat nobs onit and schaller strap locks. ,all schaller hard ware. bridge ,keys ,nobs ,strap locks. 👍👍👍.
Where can I buy this "promissing" adapter? There is no Store selling them. You´ve said that you are listening. So where can I buy them???

Gibson do you guys include the the quick connect adapters anymore?

on the eb5. when you coil tap the pickups which coil is selected. bad ass 5 string own one of those too
Where can you purchase the pickup adapter?
Humbucker Helper. A name nearly lifted from a budget meal. Both require only 3 fingers! lol
Where are all the Les Paul Tribute models at??? When I inquire at guitar Center they report there are none available...Why is that please??
When are we going to see the Adam jones epiphones?
if the pots on the guitars are vintage 50s tapper gibson should definitly sell the 4 counductor quick connect adapters i had to rewire 2 of my gibsons just to change the pickups and get an elder 57 classic or even seymour duncan

check the spelling of 'turned'
Next. How to install Push Pulls to get the out of phase & the series / paralel effects....
get the correct spelling of 'parallel' ...
👍
Everybody needs reverse polarity.
Nice
the horror story about him tinkering with his sg n the springs flying out n not being able to put it back together n having to learn on his own is the exact reason i dont mess with mine or am scared to lol
skip the 'n' for "and" ... it is not hard to say or type 'and' .
please, sell every pickup with quick connect. those who don't want it can just cut it.
🌴😎💯
Aaaaaah ! 666 likes , i won't put mine but i like .
These Gibson post are small tuition for higher education
♍️🤘⚡️

If you don't know how to install mounting rings, you should stop playing guitar
