50's wiring in Historics

[Tweety]

I'm looking at replacing the pickups in my 2010 R7 and have been advised to convert to 50s wiring.Are the current reissue les pauls wired in this fashion or not. Sorry if this has been asked before and thanks in advance for any help

I thought the 2010 models came with 50's wiring, no?

That's what I thought, I was hoping someone could confirm the fact. Thanks for your reply

Yep..50's wiring. But here is one thing I recommend, replace the caps with some NOS or similar. I did that on my Goldtop and absolutely love the difference!

Why don't you just look at your pots?

MY '10 "54" Custom has audio taper pots and 50's wiring from the factory. The first new Gibson I've bought I haven't needed to change anything.
