Welcome To Tone Man Guitar
Tone Man Guitar prebuilt 50's wiring kits will improve your guitars overall tone. Your sound will be stronger, tighter and improved clarity. Notes will open up with greater sustain. Tone and Volume controls are very responsive and smoother. By rolling back your volume some you can clean up an over driven amp. One of my favorite things is the elimination of much of the treble loss when you roll the volume down. All kits are carefully custom hand wired to order. Only the best quality parts are used including vintage Gavitt cloth push back wire just like they used back in the 50’s and 60’s. You will not find a better a better product or selection.
This Kit Is For: (Read Details)
Fender or Squire Mustang, 2 Single coil pickups. This kit has single volume control, single tone control with 3 way toggle switch located in lower section of the pick guard under neck pickup (see control layout picture to compare to your guitar). Note: This kit does not have the extra slide switches that some early model Mustangs had. Premium new components that perform better than the stock electronics found in today’s guitars. You will hear and feel the difference and love your new tone.

I personally prefer Bourns potentiometers over all other brands including CTS. I have found them to be smoother, responsive and longer lasting. The very best taper available. One of the highest rated guitar pots on the market.
If you have an imported / outside of USA manufactured guitar you may need to modify the potentiometer holes to 3/8 inch to accommodate the full size Bourns pots. Most do not.
Tone Man Guitar started from my own passion for music, knowledge of electronics and the love of great vintage guitar tone. I am a one man shop, do all the work myself and I guarantee the very best workmanship around. I want you to be Satisfied.
