PVC tubing for traditional Gibson style braided wire
Please use the tabs below to read through the information about this product.
About
If you're re-wiring a Gibson in a vintage style, then this strong PVC tubing is great for covering braided wire. This will help prevent the outer braiding (ground) from touching any components as it passes through the cavity. It is relatively flexible, much like the original tubing seen on vintage instruments, so I would consider it a viable alternative and personally use this on any vintage restoration work, and I also include a small length of it with my pre-wired kit/looms too. Internal diameter is 4mm, and it comes supplied per 1ft. If you need more, simply order further quantities and I'll cut it in a total length (stock dependent).
I have included a photo of a wiring loom I made which was for an original 1964 Gibson 335, we used this exact tubing to achieve a period correct look and worked perfectly and matched up nicely with the original pieces of PVC tubing that was actually on the original wiring.
