Here a set of 4 wire 496R and 500T set of Gibson Humbuckers, 4 wire on each

leads are long enough to install in a les paul the 496 has a splice job/electrical tape special going on but it workedas of 3 hours ago. Not sure how the wires will hold up in transit...these would be rad with new leads.

These are some of the best sounding Gibson stockers Ive ever heard. The bridge is perfect bright articulate and has bite but not shrill.

the neck, thick and velvety, not muddy. Great compliment to the bridge.

The 500T is sold and shipped! $40 shipped for the 496R

Are there 4 wires in there before the splice?

Yes 4 wire before and after the splice. Im guessing someone cut em out short instead of doing it the right way then someone got them ready for use again
