Building a Les Paul

Описание: This is a photo/video presentation, of building my first guitar.

The electronics bought by Stewmac.

StewMac Overwound Humbucker Pickups
The overwound versions of StewMac Humbucker Pickups! The same Alnico 5 magnets, but overwound to 12K ohms for high output, powerful midrange, and driving tone.

The new standard for overwound pickups
More than just high output, the Alnico 5 magnet produces a clear tone with more pronounced highs and a full but defined bass.
