Find abbreviated explanations for each option offered below. We’re proud to offer many options to customize your harness with possibilities designed to increase uniqueness, personalization, versatility and performance. Be sure to know your set-up and system needs/preferences as we will wire to your specifications.

YOUR CHOICE – Style Choice
*Choose standard wiring style (soldering required) or select the solderless option upgrade to install your new harness without any soldering by using a specially designed Dragonfire quick-connect system. You must have an existing trem/bridge ground if you select the solderless option.

YOUR CHOICE – Overall Style
*Your choice of right or left-handed / lefty wiring style.
*Note that we only use B style pots with left handed builds.

YOUR CHOICE – Pot Style
*Control pots come in mini (small/dime-sized, ~16mm diameter) or standard (large/quarter-sized ~24mm diameter) styles with short (~15mm), long (~18mm) or extra long (~30mm) shaft lengths.
Short shaft pots are generally used for plate or guard mounting, long shaft for body mounting and extra-long for LPs with ground plates. You may need additional nuts or washers for adjustment (sold separately) or other modification. Longer life brass bushings, extra-long shafts, CTS styles and Push-Pull options are options in some configurations.
*Audio Taper (“A” pot) or Linear Taper (“B” pot) styles are available. Players will often use B Pots for the volume and A pots for tone, but it’s a personal preference type of choice. We also offer your choice of OHM style.
*Traditionally, humbuckers are paired with 500K pots and single coil pickups with 250K pots. If you are coil splitting, we recommend 500K pots. 25K pots are used with active pickups. Depending on style and what you are looking for in terms of performance, you might vary from these standards at your own (extreme) discretion.

YOUR CHOICE – Control Options
*Select the number and combination style of your volume and tone pots.

YOUR CHOICE – Coil Split
*We can coil split 4-wire pickups in a number of ways to increase your playing variation and sound. Coil splitting (aka coil tapping) essentially splits a humbucker’s performance to be more like a single coil.
*Four-wire pickups are required for this option and you must know your wire color codes. Single coil and active pickups are not coil-splitable.
*Choose from mini-switch or pot-controlled coil split options or select “NONE” if you don’t need or want coil splitting.

YOUR CHOICE – Wiring Upgrade
*Choose from a variety of wiring upgrade options. Contact us if you have any questions about the options available.

YOUR CHOICE – Onboard Effects
*Find details for each type of onboard effect HERE.
*Onboard effects can either replace a tone pot control as selected in your control options or can be added as an additional control to your previously selected control options.
--For example, if you select a 1V1T control option and add a replacement onboard effect, you’ll have one volume control and your effect control (no tone control). If you select a 1V1T control option and add an additional onboard effect, you will have the 1V1T controls as selected PLUS the effect control for a three-pot system. Contact us if you have any questions.

YOUR CHOICE – Tone Cap
*Your choice of cap styles and values. Do not select a tone cap if you are not planning to have a tone control or choose to replace your tone control with an onboard effect.
--0.022 are often paired with 250K pots / single coil pickups.
--0.033 are an option for those who want to split the difference between the 22s and the 47s.
--0.047 are usually used with 500K pots / humbucker pickups.
--0.1 are designed to work with 25K pots and active pickups.

YOUR CHOICE – Wire Style
*Choose from standard or cloth-style wire with your choice of jack wire length. We provide an adequate amount of control wire for standard usage situations.

YOUR CHOICE – Jack Choice
*We offer your choice of jack styles. Jacks work with standard cables only and jack sockets accept standard ¼” plugs.
*Active pickups require a stereo jack.

YOUR CHOICE – Knob Style
*Your choice of color and knob styles.

YOUR CHOICE – Optional Add-On
*Depending on your set-up, you may require additional nuts or washers to properly install new control pots.

YOUR CHOICE – Optional Build Service Add-On
*If you purchase any of our Dragonfire Pickups in the same order, we can wire the pickup(s) you select into your new harness free of charge.
