Installing a pickup on a ES100

QuattroSte · Mar 31, 2006

OK I have just bought a Bare Knuckle bridge pup for my ES100 and I need the wiring diagram. Is there somewhere I can get this?

Any suggestions or do I just take it to a pro?

Is it possible to just cut the existing wire to the Tokai pup and solder the new pup wire to that?

There is a movie on the Seymour Duncan website about changing Les Paul pickups which might be worth watching

Yes, but it would be very messy, possibly noisier and if you ever took it out you'd never be able to put it in anything else - that'd kill resale value as well.

Best to do it properly or take it to a pro.

I agree with Paladin2019

also

With the access problems on 335 type guitars I would be tempted to take it to a pro
