    Attention!!!! The speed of mail shipped from Boston is sometimes unpredictable.
    The USPS is still experiencing added delays due to the Covid protocols. The efficiency of your state hub and local USPS plays a role as well.
    95% of the time I ship the envelopes the day you order, but once the mail leaves my possession and into the hands of the post office, I have no control over how long it takes.

    2 Quick Connect adaptors for Epiphone push/pull potentiometer
    wiring harness
    This is the
    (4 conductor+shield)
    "5 wire" style Quick Connect that Epiphone uses in some guitars with their push / pull pots.
    Made from high quality 24 AWG 11 strand tinned copper wire and is about 3 inches long.
    Heat shrink tubing for all of the wires is included, as well as 2 larger heat shrink tubes.
    You can use these connectors to connect pretty much any pickup from any company to an Epiphone push/pull pot (shown in photo #3).
    Shielded 1 wire, 2 wire, 3 wire, 4 wire and 5 wire pickups will all work with these connectors.
    I included a few diagrams to cover the basics.
    Options
    -If you want me to arrange the quick connect wires to match your pickup's color code (so they line up color to color when soldering), I can do that for you.
    On the
    Payment Page
    ,
    leave a "message to seller" note
    and include the pickup brand and model/number.
    The potentiometer in "photo #3" is not included.
    (obviously)

    Quick ’n Dirty Tips
    (always use safety glasses when working with tools)
    Even if you have an expensive stripper 😃, sometimes it can still be tricky to remove insulation without a nicking a wire.
    When using strippers, j
    ust use them to make the cut.
    Then pull the insulation off with your fingers.
    Don't use the strippers to yank the insulation off!
    If you don't have or don't feel like buying wire strippers, here's a couple of alternative stripping methods you might find helpful.
    Method 1
    Mark a straight line across all 5 wires with a marker
    Hold a non serrated butter knife or razor blade upside down (or a similar piece of metal) with pliers
    Heat the butter knife or non sharp side of the (razor blade) with a lighter or
    mini/pen torch
    Place one wire at a time on a flat surface
    Put the hot “blade” on the marked line of the wire and
    Spin (or twist) the wire under it while pushing the blade forward
    There should be a perfect line melted around the insulation now
    Pull the little bit of insulation off
    You should be good to go
    Method 2
    Hold the wire in one hand
    Run the part of the wire that you want to strip over the flame of a cigarette lighter for 1 second or less (yes, literally 1 second or less)
    In a quick manner, pull the piece of insulation right off
    You should be good to go
    Practice these methods on some scrap wire first, then practice on the ends of the quick connect wire.
    If you use these alternative stripping methods, it's of your own free will and I'm not responsible for screw ups.
