Anyone know what the wire is (type and gauge) that Gibson uses to ground the pots together on a Custom Shop R8? TIA.
Thanks!Tin-plated AWG 22 solid copper wire
Where guitar playing meets stamp collecting...Fwiw, vintage Gibsons used thicker AWG 19.
Here's one place to get that size.
Wire/Tubing #19 AWG Tinned Copper Buss Wire
One Foot (12") #19 AWG Tinned Copper Buss Wire (+/- 0.0359" diameter)Vintage correct, 1950's spec copper buss wire. As commonly used for ground wire in 1950's Gibson guitars. Impossible to find, pure unobtanium, this wire is made in the USA, specially for Luxe, especially for those discerning...luxe-radio.com

LOL I don't think I've heard that saying in maybe 50 years.Only your hairdresser will know for sure.
Welcome to Old Dude Central.LOL I don't think I've heard that saying in maybe 50 years.
I started this thread. It has nothing to do with your alleged problem. Take your spam crap elsewhere and shut up.This company has almost $1000 of mine and I still no news for 7 months ! No response , fake tracking numbers... They let you guys do this in the US ? Not in my country.
Thank you.We got his point on Luxe. Caveat emptor.
Well that's too bad -- you're losing out on 2awg worth of tone!!I compromised and got some 20 gauge wire.
Actually I think I ended up finding some heavier buss wire but that was about 1.5 years ago so I don't remember.Well that's too bad -- you're losing out on 2awg worth of tone!!
yes...this is sarcasm
