Welcome To Tone Man Guitar. Tone Man Guitar prebuilt 50’s wiring kits will improve your guitars overall tone. Your sound will be stronger, tighter and improved clarity. Notes will open up. Elimination of some treble loss when you roll the volume down. Tone and volume controls are very responsive to each other and smoother. By rolling back your volume some you can clean up an over driven amp. You will not find a better product or selection. I recommend 50’s wiring for the best over tone performance. Our 59 Kit uses Paper In Oil K40Y vintage tone caps for improved overall performance. Excellent clarity, aged vintage warm and woody tones with improved sustainability. These caps are equal to or better than Bumble Bee or Vitamin Q’s. We have found no better tone cap. You will hear and feel the difference. This Kit Is For. Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor full hollow body style with longer switch wire run in upper or lower body next to neck. Must not have any wood bracing between the two f holes that will obstruct the 3 way switch from being fed through. Check layout measurements below.

I have found them to be smoother, responsive and longer lasting. The very best taper available. These pots are 18 spline shaft so USA type knobs will not fit without first pinching the top of the split shaft together a little and slowly push the knob on. Epiphone and off shore type will fit fine. We do offer a line of knobs that fit. If you have an imported / outside of USA manufactured guitar you may need to modify the potentiometer holes to 3/8 inch to accommodate the full size Bourns pots. Your installation instructions will cover this. Although these harnesses are pre-assembled and tested they do require some soldering to connect the pickups and the output jack. A 25 40 watt soldering iron is recommended. Make sure you are comfortable with making these connections or we suggest you take this to a qualified guitar tech to complete the installation.
