Our Luxe Pre-Wired kits are assemble by us in the UK using the best components and wiring them in a vintage correct manner.

For our Bumblebee kits we measure the value of each  CTS Total Vintage Tone “TVT” pot to create matched sets to give you an even response when rolling down your volume and tone controls and then carefully assemble the kit using vintage correct bus wire and of course Luxe Capacitors.

This kit has a matched set of Bumblebee capacitors, each cap is hand wound on a 1932 Sprague Specialties Co. Winding Machine replica using exact vintage spec foil and paper film. They're hand soldered, hand cast in oven-proof thermoplastic, hot vacuum impregnated with pure castor oil and hand-painted and are finished with authentic impregnated spaghetti tubing.

Woman Tone:

This kit is wired with a 0.015uf capacitor in the neck position and the slightly lower value gives a wider range to the tone control making easier to dial in that "Woman Tone" without it going too dark too quickly.

In the Kit:

• 1 Luxe .022uF Bumblebee Capacitor.
• 1 Luxe .015up Bumblebee Capacitor
• 4 TVT 500K CTS Split Shaft Matched Set Potentiometers Long shaft with 9.5mm (3/8") Shaft Diameter and 19.0mm Threaded Length or Short Shaft with 6.0mm Threaded Length.
