Seymour Duncan Slash Pickup Installation... an Epiphone Les Paul Special II is the lucky recipient!

Some orange drop capacitors would have been a nice touch

$200 poickups on a 100 guiyar - get a better one

Shouldn’t the black side always face inwards? Or does this set have a reversed zebra bridge pickup?

Could I install one alnico pickup at the bridge and leave one original at the neck? Would that work?

If I wanted to have a music shop do a similar setup, and set the string heights, check everything, etc...like what is done in this video... what exactly would I go in and ask them to do? About how much would one expect this kind of work to cost if the frets don't require a lot of work?
I'm debating a similar entry level guitar and then having something like this done to it a bit down the road as skills develop and if interest in playing continues.

I would have got the same pups on Amazon for 30 bucks. What are they alnico 5s??? I’m sure there’s not a huge difference other than brand name

209.00 pickups in a 179.00 guitar and worried about 4.00 set of strings. You can't make this up. I love customers...

Does the braided coating on the wire have to be pulled down to reveal the other wire? Mine only has the black wire. I can't find the correct wiring diagram for one volume, one tone, and a 3 way switch.

Excellent channel and content. Subscribed immediately. Keep it up!

I actually have one. Changed the shitty tuners to Grover style that screwed perfectly except I did have to enlarge the holes using a Stew Mac hole reamer tool. DO NOT USE A DRILL BIT, it will chip the finish. I also changed that shitty nut to a tusk, my friend did the same with bone. We can't tell any difference. I went to CTS pots with split pick up. (push /pull) , vintage wires and Seymour Duncan Billy Gibson pickups. My friend did the same but used the Slash pickups. We just turned $159 guitars into 600 to 1,000 dollar guitars for about 300 bucks. So they are a Les Paul JR's, with an extra pick up. Not P90's. The bodies are solid, the necks are fine and they are light and will rip you a new asshole. They are monsters, with the upgrades.

I loved it turning the truss without looking the fret relief.

Nice overall vid!

Can you translate into audible English the part where you set the pickup height?

I'm surprised you didn't check that the the strings matched the fretboard radius.

No sound demo? :(
