I fitted the pickups to a" real Les Paul"....replacing the whole harness with replica vintage correct parts.....and replacing the vintage PAFs with your pickups...putting the entire vintage array in storage to prevent moisture getting in...as I do actually gig this guitar!...I ordered the Top's seperate as I wanted to "age" and "dimple" them,and also to change the mag in the front pickup for a vintage alnico out of a 1955 P90 which I've had for some 30 years.........Although I've modded one of your pickups,I did try them both in the guitar unaltered before I went ahead and "did my thing" with the front pup....They are magnificent pups,non of that wooliness in the front pickup,and the bridge pup has a clarity and bite....with a nice fatness,without being "middlely"....you do not need "perceived power" in order to get an authentic PAF tone....these do it all. The only niggley bit is the Bridge pup is 52mm pole spacing and I had to modify a top to fit.This measurement is NOT vintage correct ,and should be spot on 50mm!....the poles overhang a little but in truth,you only notice if you're looking and I can't perceive any drop in tone or volume.
