Hey everybody, I'm looking to install a set of Seymour Duncan Hot Rodded pickups in my Epiphone Les Paul Standard. The thing is... well I know they can be wired for coil splitting, and that interests me, and I think it makes sense to give myself the full ability of the pickups I purchased. So this raises a few questions, and I have only been left to researching this 100% on my own so I wanted to make sure what I'm thinking is right before I go forward with anymore progress. So in order to coil split I would need pots that can allow for that. Perhaps a kit like this? I was also looking at a wiring diagram like this. I imagine this is a pretty common question, so I apologize if I could have just as easily read a thread about this somewhere on the site, but I decided to take a chance and ask instead after looking through the tutorial section and not finding exact answers to my questions. If there is a thread somewhere already about this I would gladly read it. Thank you in advance!

Hello everyone, I just wanted to formally introduce myself as the new guy. I was really impressed with this website, and I couldn't help but want to join the forum and learn from everyone since my newly discovered interest has been directed at tweaking my guitar. I've only been playing for about a year and a half, and I'm still very much an amateur. Like I said before I've discovered an interest in modifying my guitar - i.e. installing new pickups, and replacing a new pickup toggle switch, plus re-soldering broken wires on a used bass I bought. I have a lot of questions, and I hope I can get some advice from anyone who is willing to give it. I'll do my best to put those questions in the appropriate areas topic wise too. So if I make any mistakes just let me know, and I'll do my best to follow the rules on here. Some day I'd like to build a guitar from the ground up, but I'm at the baby step stage where I'm learning to tweak the one I have already. I could not believe some of the builds I saw on here. It's very inspiring to me, and I look forward to the day I can make one from scratch like some of you already have. Either way I just wanted to say hi, and thanks for letting me join!
