Hey, as far as you have the gorgeous mini humbucker equipped Gibson Les Paul 70's tribute (I am not ashamed of this awkward adulation at all), can you help me with the value of pots and capacitors that matches mini humbuckers in your guitar? I have a set of that pickups, but have no idea what pots and capacitors to use with them. Thank you beforehand

500k audio pots for volume, 500k linear pots for tone, .022uf caps

Same as humbuckers and P90s. Gibson used 300k pots for volumes for years but I don't think they do anymore, and you could use audio pots all round without issue as well (à la Epiphone).

That's ok, I do think that Paul is 100% right. Now I remember that my Wilshire had 500 kOhm pots (and yes both of them were audio) and 0,22 mkF capacitors. Thank you to both of you
