Hello,
I'm fairly new to all of this, so bear with me.
I'm wanting to replace the pickups in my Epiphone Les Paul Custom Pro and decided on the Seth Lovers. The thing is, I currently have a solderless wiring harness from Obsidianwire in the guitar (which I absolutely love), and from what I've read I gather that the vintage single-conductor braided shield cable that comes with the Seth Lovers won't work with the wiring harness (or will require some sort of creative work-around). So I was wondering -- and maybe this shows my ignorance when it comes to wiring -- if the 4-conductor version of the Seth Lovers has its grounding as a separate wire, since I would need to plug each wire into its own individual port on the harness.
It's not a split coil setup, but I have the stock 4-conductor pickups plugged into it currently (the harness has extra ports) and everything works fine, so that's not an issue. I included a picture of the part of the harness where the wires would be connecting, if that helps at all -- it's cropped from the Obsidianwire website.
Any input/advice/ideas are welcome. Thanks guys.
