Gibson® SG® Circuit Board Upgrades

Gibson® SG® Circuit Board Upgrade

Early versions of the Gibson SG circuit boards were built with 300K Volume pots and tiny ceramic disc tone capacitors. The 300K Volume pots are the main reason why many Gibson guitars can sound so dark and muddy…

Our Custom Shop Gibson PCB upgrade features two 500K genuine Gibson audio taper Volume pots and a pair of Orange Drop .022uf tone capacitors and now includes a pair of Orange Drop Treble Bleed circuits.

Instantly brighten up the tone of your guitar with this simple and cost-effective upgrade!

Gibson® SG® Circuit Board push/pull Upgrade

Newer versions of the Gibson SG circuit board (with the 5-pin Quick Connect pickup connectors - but without push/pull pots) are ideal candidates for an upgrade of a different kind by adding push/pull pots giving you the ability to coil-split the 4-conductor pickups already installed in your guitar! Our Custom Shop Circuit Board push/pull upgrade features two 500K CTS SPST push/pull audio taper Volume pots and a pair of Orange Drop .022uf tone capacitors and now includes a pair of Orange Drop Treble Bleed circuits.

Unlock the full potential of your guitar and pickups - not to mention an expanded palette of single coil tones - with this simple and cost-effective upgrade!

Note: This upgrade no longer involves adding a pair of QuickConnect adapters as currently shown here, rather we have determined how to connect the push/pull pots directly to the onboard QuickConnect sockets.

*** Please note: we’re learning that these monolithic PCBs (with the integrated output jack) will not fit in the newer Gibson SGs with the Version 2 modular PCB (with the separate external output jack assembly) without modification. Please include a pic of your existing PCB to ensure that the upgraded PCB will fit in your control cavity.

Gibson® SG® V2 Circuit Board Push/pull Upgrade

Late model Gibson SG’s feature a smaller circuit board with the external output jack assembly and can also be upgraded with push/pull pots giving you the ability to coil-split the 4-conductor pickups already installed in your guitar! Our Custom Shop Circuit Board push/pull upgrade features two 500K CTS SPST push/pull audio taper Volume pots and a pair of Orange Drop .022uf tone capacitors and now includes a pair of Orange Drop Treble Bleed circuits.
