Pre-Wired harness common questions!

Pre-Wired harness common questions!

I've been proudly making, developing and installing my pre-wired guitar harnesses since the beginning of the Home of Tone back in 2015 (time flies when you're having fun right!). Although I feel I do my best in covering as much information as possible already across the various product listings, fitting guides and wiring diagrams and more, I thought it might be helpful to put together this article answering some of the common questions my customers ask either prior to ordering or prior/during installing in your guitar. I'm going to delve into a variety of questions for a range of the harnesses, but I'll try to do so in a clear way to help you find the info you are looking for!

Harness packaging, streamlined for 2019

Harness packaging, streamlined for 2019

For existing customers who may have had a wiring harness from me previously, you may remember I have long included a printed copy of my general tips & fitting guide as well as your relevant wiring diagram inside of the box. Well, In an increased effort to reduce the amount of paper used in my packaging and less stuff to have to throw away(!) I will be rolling out ASAP a new packaging method which should be a whole lot more healthy on the paper usage.

With every pre-wired harness I ship out, I supply a handy fitting guide with tips and key points to follow to make the install go as smoothly as possible, alongside  a simple to follow wiring diagram. But, and understandably of course, sometimes translating that info to the real world when the soldering iron is smoldering away can be a little daunting if you're not used to it. So I've wanted to create a step-by-step guide to fitting one of my Home of Tone pre-wired Les Paul 50s Style harnesses! I will follow soon with a Modern Style wiring fitting guide too :)

I want to replace my guitar's wiring, would it make a difference?

I want to replace my guitar's wiring, would it make a difference?

Replacing, or in some cases upgrading your guitar's wiring may be a matter of necessity if there are niggling faults perhaps, but you may also have considered replacing it as a way of improving the guitar. So, the big question of course is would it make a difference?
