would i be able to fit a couple of harmony silvertone pickups to a les paul?

[sixstringsentence]

my problem is no one has a video on how to do an Epiphone LP Junior and I need that guide rather badly as the distortion has cut out on it completely...like I switch it to distorted and it's just clean but a bit louder...do I need a new humbucker or is it just faulty wiring? please help me :)

[Motopsycho96]

Hi, I have a question... I have a Dean Vendetta 1000 and it has by stock a push/pull coil knob, can I change the humbuckers with any other or are there any other pick ups that support this kind of stuff? I mean... I like the tone but seriously for Pantera-style songs it doesn't fit....

[xXcrackheadfoogabeXx]

Now i have a rather creepy guitar a P-42 parker and i ordered seymour duncan pickups which come with a diagram do any of you know if i should still go to a guitar store or if i should try it out myself? Thanks =)

[cheepo888]

@xXcrackheadfoogabeXx i say if you feel comfortable doing it yourself then go for it but the safest thing to do is have it done at a shop

[adamberg666]

Is there polarity in pickups? Or doesnt it matter if the wires are reversed?

[Hatredismypride]

Oh men I wish there are seymourducan pickups in the philippines

I wish I was on america and not the philippines people in america are amazing with guitar's and guitar accessories

[KEYiENenWAY]

@Hatredismypride Kaya nga eh taena XD

[KarloR27]

Leave some slack on the string and wind it on it's easier then wrapping it with no slack. It'll just fly over the place if you let go of it. Good vid.

[arthatis]

What about if I have a coil tap? How do I wire it for that? Thats the thing thats really messing me up right now

[Fabulongosho]

long live the TAPE!!!

[J66pwnz]

If your gonna replace pickups, I suggest you bring it to a shop and watch those guys on how they do it cuz if it's your first time to replace pickups, your bound to fuck up at some point and ruin your guitar forever xDDD

[Wrathofkala]

@J66pwnz Good point man. I agree 100% ....I have a guy just outside of Phila PA USA who charges $29 which is very resonable.

[xGuiTarrxMaNiAcx10o0]

Now..i have an epiphone les paul and i wanna put EMG 81's in there, would this video help me?

[arthatis]

@xGuiTarrxMaNiAcx10o0

Yes and no. Yes because its a les paul, no because you will need a battery compartment for EMGs. Take it to a professional, but adding the EMGs and carving out a batter space kinda defeats the purpose of a les paul aka a "big heaping carved and finished chunk o mahogany"

[xKillerXMachinex]

@arthatis He doesen't need to carve space for a battery. There's enough room in there

[seandog1234]

Long hair isn't a good idea for people his age. Great video though.

[DiegoTheCrazy]

hey when i play a fret lower than 12 on the 1st string it makes a choking sound.. i took it to a best buy and they like.. screwed it up with the choking thing. any idea what it is?

[demonslayer1000]

@DiegoTheCrazy ya dont go to best buy to fix your guitar go to a good place for your instruments like if you live in the U.S go to guitar center

[epinky2295]

@demonslayer1000 NO!!! Guitar Center is a BIG no no unless its all thats around

[ant1mag3]

when i remove the pick up of my SG , can i use this as a guide?

[0oDenniso0]

Hello! i have this buzz sound under my pickups, and im not so experienced with guitars, so i just want to be sure that it's save to remove them quick just to have a look underneath.

[KgRampage]

@0oDenniso0 ur neck may be warped a bit try a neck ajustment and that dosnent work may be pickup or if u have a single coil pickup they usally make a buzzing noise

[809Metallica]

Seymour is the Man! Larry Dimarzio is also the Man!

[ARVNpistola313]

hahas thats how i always changed my strings. I thought it was doing it incorrectly.

[GuitarGuy0008]

@ARVNpistola313 if it gets the job done, it isn't incorrect :)

[VelvetRevolverMother]

Wooow, when i first thought about getting new pickups i thought to myself it cant be thaaaaatt hard.

but damn i was wrong. looks pretty tough.

[proktor1986]

Nice way to change the strings.

[rambo123627]

dose any one know what strings those are. i know its a dumb question but i noticed the metal stopers are colors and i have them on my strat but have no idea what they are so please if you know tell me

[neroroxxx]

the color coded strings are D'Addario strings.

[akguitar94]

i have a les paul jr and i wana change the pickup in it, can i use this video as a guide? or is this different?

[AtomicMonkey26]

Yes, The Les Pauls follow pretty much the same diagram for the circuit of the pickups. U just gotta be careful with the wiring. If you can get a Diagram you can go wrong.
