Welcome to Tone Man Guitar. Our ES175 Blues kit uses Paper In Oil Aged K42Y tone caps for improved overall performance. Excellent clarity with very vintage jazz warm and woody tones. All wired 50’s style with premium new components that perform better than the stock electronics found in today’s guitars. The difference in our PIO caps and others is ours are aged. Generally from the mid 80’s. This is what gives true vintage tone. You will hear the difference. This harness is a full replacement for any Gibson or Epiphone ES175, ES295 and other full holly body guitar styles 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. Other similar models are ES275, ES350T, ES125TD, Epi Broadway, Epi Joe Pass. Be sure and compare component distance measurements and f hole size to compare to your guitar. Template component measurements center to center. Volume to Volume 2.5″ Switch to Neck Volume 15″. Tone to Tone 2.5″ Switch to Jack 20″. Volume to Tone 2.5. We add an additional 1/2 to 1 inch extra wire run between components for installation flexibility. Wiring harness is feed thru the f holes and requires opening in the widest part of the f hole no less than 1 – 1/8 inch to be able to feed the harness into the hollow body. What’s In The Blues Kit.

Switchcraft ΒΌ inch Output Jack. Assembly Template Hard Board All assembled except for final hook up of Pickups connections and grounds. I personally prefer Bourns potentiometers over all other brands including CTS. 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. I can not be responsible if you damage a unit. In stock means I have the parts to build. About Tone Man Guitar: I have been playing the guitar for over 50+ years.
