Gibson SG Circuit Board Upgrades

Gibson SG Circuit Board Upgrade

Recent Gibson SG models feature the "Quick Connect" printed circuit board (PCB) with modular plugs and wiring so you can quickly remove and replace the pickups without the need for a soldering iron. Earlier versions of the circuit boards were built with 300K Volume pots and tiny ceramic disc tone capacitors. The 300K Volume pots are the main reason why many Gibson guitars can sound so dark and muddy…

Our Custom Shop Gibson PCB upgrade features two 500K genuine Gibson audio taper Volume pots and a pair of Orange Drop .022uf tone capacitors as pictured here. Optional Orange Drop Treble Bleed circuits available for an upcharge.

Brighten up the tone of your guitar with this simple and cost-effective upgrade!

Gibson SG Circuit Board push/pull Upgrade

Newer versions of the Gibson SG circuit board (with the 5-pin Quick Connect pickup connectors - but without push/pull pots) are ideal candidates for an upgrade of a different kind by adding push/pull pots giving you the ability to coil-split the 4-conductor pickups already installed in your guitar! Our Custom Shop Circuit Board push/pull upgrade features two 500K CTS SPST push/pull audio taper Volume pots and a pair of Orange Drop .022uf tone capacitors and now includes a pair of Orange Drop Treble Bleed circuits.

Unlock the full potential of your guitar and pickups - not to mention an expanded palette of single coil tones - with this simple and cost-effective upgrade!
