Wiring Harnesses / Looms – “Just Add Pickups”
Axekool guitars build wiring harnesses / Looms that are a great way to upgrade or replace your guitar’s electronics and tone. Our wiring harnesses are handmade by us in our workshop to order. We offer wiring harnesses for all guitars and bass models, including Gibson, Fender and Epiphone.
Built to last – Like all our work, we take a great deal of pride and produce some of the cleanest looking, finest wiring harnesses that money can buy. We source premium components from manufacturers such as CTS®, Switchcraft®, CRL. Oak, Gavitt® Sprague and various with paper in oil Capacitors. Every component is fully tested before use and once assembled the harnesses are fully tested before being fitted or posted out.
Bespoke Wiring Harnesses for all models
Bespoke wiring harnesses are also available and made to order to match any requirement, including colour components like gold and left handed versions. We can build a wiring harness for just about any guitar on the market, new, old or vintage.
Fitting & Installation
We can build and fit your new wiring harness all in one workshop, (no need to buy elsewhere). We fit the harness for you, even on hollowbody guitars that a lot of Luthiers and guitar workshops won’t touch or charge extra money for.
Customer feedback from 50’s wiring harness fitted / Les Paul.
Started playing with the tone controls to just take a bit of the top off – holy hell! That tone control is awesome….what is that!?
It works throughout the entire travel of the tone pot – never experienced anything like it before. With a Les Paul I would only ever drop a bit of top off then its starts getting muddy, but on this new wiring, even with the tone fully off you get a great, vocal mid push which cuts right through the mix. It makes the whole balance of neck and bridge much more fine tuned… lots of great tones to be found. Excellent clean up when rolling off the volume too – I guess that’s the 50’s wiring – but allows another option for switching from clean to drive by just switching pickups… something I would only usually do in a pinch, but so easy to set up on this new pickup/wiring combination because the neck pick up is so open.
The original harness was made up of cheap components and the client was have a few problems. The new harness has 2 x 250k CTS Pots, 0.47 Orange Drop Cap and Switchcraft Jack.
