## Overview

The Art Of Tone Gavitt Pushback Cloth Wire is a 22 AWG pre-tinned stranded copper wire with authentic 1950s vintage cloth insulation.

## Description

12 feet genuine GAVITT vintage-style wire for guitar. Includes 6 feet of black wire and 6 feet of vintage white.This vintage cloth push-back wire is 22AWG stranded wire, with textile braid made by Gavitt. This is the same wire used by Fender. It has a tinned overcoat after the individual strands of the conductor are twisted together locking the strands into a single unit just like Fender has their wire made. The benefit to this process is that the wire holds its shape very well without having fraying strands at the cuts needing to be twisted and tinned, making it very easy to work with. The cloth push-back insulation reduces work time by eliminating the need for wire strippers. Just cut to length, push back the cover and solder into place.

Review: Really nice! 🤘 - I enjoyed working with this wire on my jazz bass - many more projects to come I hope! I would say this saved me a good amount of time. No wire stripping, no pre-tinning each wire. Just cut it, push it back, and solder it up. Yes, it helps to have good tools! :) The cloth does fray if you work it too much - you can see where my big dumb hands struggled with pushing back the cloth on the smaller pieces of wire. I’m pretty sure I could have fixed that by hitting it with a lighter for a very brief moment. It also looks great in my opinion, is resilient, and can hold a shape. Any way - good times - I highly recommend this wire, it’s the good stuff.
Review: Revolutionize Your Wiring - When it comes to wiring for guitars, amps, or any vintage-style applications, this 7 strand wire is truly exceptional. In fact, I believe it's the best wire I've ever had the pleasure of using. What sets it apart is not only its impeccable performance but also the convenience it offers. The three-color assortment provided with this wire is a boon for organization. It helps keep things neat and easily identifiable during wiring projects. Moreover, the wire arrives tightly packaged, ensuring its safe delivery when ordered. The most remarkable aspect of this wire is its pre-tinned and pushback wiring. This means you don't have to go through the hassle of stripping the wire; you simply pull back the cloth covering and start soldering. It's a time-saving feature that adds to the overall efficiency of the wiring process. I personally used this wire to connect humbuckers, pots, and even employed it in small electronic applications to achieve a captivating "steampunk" aesthetic. Throughout my experience, I encountered no issues with this wire, except for a few instances of user error. Its durability is worth noting as well; even when standing on it, the wire didn't snap or break. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would confidently give this wire a perfect score of 10. It surpasses any other brand I've come across in terms of quality, convenience, and reliability. It's important to note that each cloth covering contains only one wire, without the occasional inclusion of hot and ground/shielding wires. In conclusion, if you're in need of exceptional wire for guitar, amp, or vintage-style wiring projects, I wholeheartedly recommend this 7 strand wire. Its top-notch performance, combined with the convenience of pre-tinned and pushback wiring, make it a standout choice. You can't go wrong with this wire, and it's undoubtedly a superior option compared to other brands available in the market.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this handle 600 volts typically found in restoring tube radios. I would think it would be the same as for tube amps.**
A: This wire is specifically manufactured for use in guitars, and thus, the manufacturer (Gavitt) does not publish an insulation resistance rating. It is also stranded and most vintage gear uses solid core wire, typically 20 gauge or larger (this is 22awg, which is smaller). Many suppliers of vintage "style" amplifier repair wire suggest and sell cloth covered PVC insulated wire for repairs and new builds. This wire has only a waxed cotton insulator, so I would not recommend using it in a high voltage application as there are far safer and similar "looking" products available that have modern insulation properties.

**Q: Does this wire require any special shielding for use in a Les Paul guitar?**
A: Although this type of wire is traditionally used in Fender guitars, it can be used in any guitar, but it is not shielded like the wire that is typically used in a Les Paul. 
Most Les Paul guitars would use Gavitt Vintage Style Braided Shield Hook Up Wire For Guitars, which has a single conductor pushback wire with an outer braided shield that is used for the ground side of the circuit. You may want to Google some photos of Les Paul Control Cavities.
Modern Les Paul guitars  use a circuit board that the pickups hook directly in to and may not use outside braided wire at all (depending on which pickups are used). 
My opinion is "the more shielding, the quieter the guitar will be". To wire a Les Paul in the "traditional" configuration, you would use outside braided wire instead of unshielded wire, but I have seen many Les Pauls that have used "other" wire.
Hope this info helps to answer your question.

**Q: What country is this manufactured in?**
A: Manufactured in the USA.

**Q: How many feet of wire is provided? The listing name says 12 (6wht/ 6blk) details says 3 of each**
A: I just checked what I have left over after a pickup wiring project. I have about 5.5 feet of each color so it was definitely 6 ft of each. The ad's 3 foot statement is a typo.
