... change out the pickups? The guitar is a 1999 Les Paul Classic Premium Plus. I don't want to post pics yet because the guitar gets here tomorrow and the pics I have are from the Reverb ad. That guitar should come with the stock 496R / 500T pickups.
I think they're going to be too hot for the tones I like so I bought a pair of Custombuckers. I plan on de-soldering the pickups and pulling out the entire wiring harness including pots and caps and replacing them with the Custombuckers and a solderless MojoTone wiring kit.
That way everything can be put back to stock if I ever decide to sell it. However, once I pull those electronics, it's not really factory stock installed anymore.
What is your opinion?
