Single Coil Telecaster DIY Wiring Upgrade Kit

Description: Our DIY Telecaster Wiring Upgrade kits are a great upgrade to your tone, reliability, and life of your guitar!For those who want to learn to wire their guitar themselves, or want to really be able to slap a “built-not-bought” badge to your guitar’s Tinder profile, our DIY Wiring Upgrade Kits give you all the components needed to refresh your guitar’s wiring, yourself.This DIY Telecaster Wiring Upgrade Kit is designed to fit most American and Mexican made Fender Telecasters with no modification required.

The Orange Drop capacitor line introduced in the 60’s heralded the capacitors of the modern era-with stability, resistance to temperature variation, low moisture absorption, excellent characteristics, no microphonics, and other desirable attributes. In guitars, Orange Drop capacitors provide the stability and precision, therefore consistent tone, that professionals expect. Other precision capacitors would be suitable, but Orange Drop capacitors have a well-deserved reputation for quality that has proven itself for close to half a century. With a track record like that, it’s hard not to trust the most popular tone capacitor chosen by guitarists. Don’t All Capacitors with the Same Value Sound the Same? Nope! There are two different capacitor classes: for ease we’ll call them premium and cheapos. Premium tone capacitors are generally within 1-10% of their target value. Cheapos, often found in knock-offs or beginner guitars, can be as far as 80% off from their target value. Capacitance can also vary with frequency, temperature, and applied voltage; some ceramic capacitors are even somewhat microphonic. If your guitar uses a cheap capacitor and you think your guitar sounds different under stage lights than when you’re offstage, you’re probably right. Experience the difference of Captain Tone!This Kit Includes: (2) CTS Solid Shaft Potentiometers (250K)(1) Premium 3-way Pickup Selector Switch(1) Switchcraft ¼” Mono Output Jack(1) Sprague Orange Drop Capacitor (0.047uf) (1) 2 Feet of 22awg Vintage Push-Back Wire - White(1) 2 Feet of 22awg Vintage Push-Back Wire - Black(1) Treasure Map (wiring diagram) **Control Plate, Switch Tip, and Knobs are not included**
