Upgrade Les Paul: Active Humbuckers!

DIY: Installing Active Humbuckers in a Gibson Les Paul
- YouTube

Previously, John Bohlinger was curious about what active pickups could do for his anemic 1994 Stratocaster and EMG offered their drop-and-go Steve Lukather SL20 Pickguard set. JB was floored with the guitar's fresh voice and responsive dynamics he wanted to expand the active experiment to his beloved 2003 Gibson Les Paul.
