Can someone give me some advise on wiring these humbuckers in a Gibson Les Paul Standard? The schematic that came with these pickups are not 50's wiring.What would be the best way and sound the best. Thanks

have you looked on the SD site? if also depends on what you're looking for. if you want the LP 50s wiring, you might find that on the Gibson site or over on that big LP forum....then just confirm how the SD color codes translate. or you could call SD tech support and ask them... if it's not on the SD site, they are known to be able to take care of wiring questions.

Can you be more specific which version of what people call 50s wiring you want?

Hot from the pup goes to the left lug of the vol pot. From middle lug of vol pot to tone control and to switch.
 
Re: SEYMOUR DUNCAN ANTIQUITIES HUMBUCKERS

Essentially 50's wiring for most just means the tone cap is attached to the output lug of the volume pots (switch wire is soldered there too) rather than the input lug (where the pickup hot is soldered).
