Ok heres the dish. I Recently acquired a Gibson 25th/50th Ann. Les Paul. the pickups played good but were a little worn so I replaced them with an Invader and a Dimebucker which worked extremely well and I had no problems with the wiring. Wheres the problem you ask? Well now I want to put the Gibson Pickups in my Epiphone Les Paul. Unfortunately as everyone knows a Gibson or at least most Gibsons have Two tone and volume controls and the origional pick ups have two wires coming out to accommadate the tone switch. My Epiphone has one volume and one tone knob. How is it possible to wire the Gibson pickups into my Epi?
