ObsidianWire®

Solderless Guitar Wiring Harnesses

Upgrade your guitar with a professionally built ObsidianWire guitar wiring harness, designed to make electronics upgrades, installation and compatible pickup changes easier. From classic Stratocaster and Telecaster circuits to Les Paul, Jazzmaster and custom configurations, our range combines purpose-built wiring with quality components and our solderless Plug, Play & Enjoy™ system.

Choose from traditional pickup layouts or expand your guitar's capabilities with 7-way switching, blender controls, coil splitting, series/parallel switching and selectable 50s/60s Plus wiring. Whether you're replacing ageing electronics, upgrading a new guitar, experimenting with different pickups or building a custom instrument, there's an ObsidianWire configuration designed for the job.

Every harness is professionally assembled and tested in-house, using components such as custom ObsidianWire CTS® potentiometers, quality switches and PureTone® or Switchcraft® output jacks. With solderless options available, compatible pickups can also be changed without repeatedly soldering inside your guitar.

ObsidianWire Guitar Wiring

Guitar Wiring Harnesses Built for Easier Upgrades

ObsidianWire makes professionally built guitar wiring harnesses for players, builders and technicians who want a cleaner, easier way to upgrade their electronics. From traditional pickup configurations to advanced switching and solderless systems, our range is designed to give you more control without requiring you to build the circuit yourself.

Wiring for Popular Guitar Configurations

Choose from purpose-built electronics for some of the most popular guitar platforms, including Stratocaster, Telecaster, Les Paul, Jazzmaster and other electric guitars. Depending on the model, options include SSS, HSS, HSH, HH and other pickup configurations, with different switching and control layouts available.

Stratocaster Wiring — SSS, HSS, HSH, 7-way, blender and coil-splitting options.

Telecaster Wiring — 3-way, 4-way, Nashville 7-way and Universal configurations.

Les Paul Wiring — Vintage 50s, 60s Plus and advanced switching options for two-humbucker guitars.

More Than a Standard Wiring Harness

ObsidianWire circuits can add functionality that isn't available from a conventional stock wiring setup. Depending on the harness, features include 7-way pickup switching, blender controls, coil splitting, series/parallel switching, phase switching and selectable 50s/60s Plus wiring.

These options let you access additional pickup combinations while retaining familiar guitar controls.

Solderless Guitar Wiring

Our Plug, Play & Enjoy™ solderless system takes much of the soldering out of guitar electronics upgrades. The harness is professionally assembled before installation, while compatible pickups can be connected and changed without repeatedly soldering inside the control cavity.

That makes solderless wiring particularly useful for players who experiment with pickups, guitar builders and technicians who regularly work on multiple instruments.

Professionally Built Electronics

ObsidianWire harnesses are assembled and tested in-house using carefully selected components. Depending on the product, these include custom ObsidianWire CTS® potentiometers, Oak® and Schaller® switches, PureTone® and Switchcraft® output jacks, and polyester film capacitors.

Individual circuits are designed around their intended pickup and switching configuration rather than simply combining generic components.

Upgrade, Experiment and Change

A guitar wiring upgrade doesn't have to be a permanent decision. With a solderless system, your guitar can become an easier platform for experimenting with different compatible pickups and electronics.

Whether you're replacing ageing components, chasing a particular vintage wiring configuration, adding new pickup combinations or building a custom instrument, ObsidianWire gives you a professionally assembled starting point.
