See Gibson's Page here.

Mods: 

  • Added Schaller strap locks, 5/2003

  • Wired to "modern" Les Paul wiring, 7/4/2006

  • Volume Pots Changed to CTS 500k Ohm Linear Taper, 11/9/2006

  • Caps Changed to Sprague Orange Drops.  Used a 0.015mf on the neck and 0.033mf on the bridge, 11/9/2006

  • Added knob pointers, 11/9/2006

  • Replaced the Neck tone pot with a DPDT push/pull switch that does phase reversal on the neck pickup, 1/8/2007

  • Redid all the wiring just for a general cleanup and removed all the "piles" of solder left from Gibson.  Also moved the caps around to wire them 50's style.  Made a stack of cardboard pieces and put under the neck humbucker to get it level with the strings rather than level with the pickguard.  11/25/2007.
