Anyone use these in their guitars? Anyone notice a noticeable difference in there tone when swapping out the electronics to a RS kit?


I bought some pre-wired sets and there's a noticable difference when you use your volume/tone - especially the neck pickup - but that being said, you could get the components yourself and accomplish the same thing for LOTS less.

How does it sound?

I have to get the pickup height adjusted to the right level, but there is definitely more clarity than the stock set I had in there. More usable use of the volume/ tone roll-off, haven't really had too much time to play with it too much, I was done with everything at midnight last night and I forgot to do one step, and that was ground the 2nd lug of both tone pots. I was staring at it for awhile trying to figure out why the tone roll off wasn't working, soldered it to the pot and it worked. :rock:

I had to use the stock switch though.. I forgot SG's have a different kind of switch than LP's. Not sure if a switch will make any big difference, but I don't think I'll bother with it.
 
I ordered a kit for one of my PRS's. I wanted to convert the PRS from the 5 way switching to McCarty switching that's the only reason but I am very pleased with the outcome.
