Hi,

I am restoring a 1953 Gibson console 530 and need to find new tunning keys and a electronic diagram. I tried Gibson but they were unable to help me. Would you know where I could find parts and schematics for this guitar?

Thanks for your help.




Please contact ron_veitel@hotmail.com if you have any leads or ideas.

Brad,
I have a Gibson, 520, I think. Anyway, it is a 1956 Console Grande with the 4-8-4 pickup.
The later models had a couple of pushbuttons, mine does not have them.

Gibson wouldn't even reply to my inquires.

So I developed a complete electrical schematic and details of how the pickups are wired and switched.

I'll send that fellow a copy. It's in AutoCad, so I'll probably have to do it by snail mail.
