@rct I don't believe he's looking to buy replacements.
Think he's wondering out loud about how the HP got appointments that other LP's did not, and if they were factory.
And the answer was yes, factory

The "High Performance" guitars where sort of all over the map with what they came with..
they did not come with the standard appointments as this was a thinking of the old management that people wanted something a little different than just a "standard" Les Paul

L&M offer free curb side pickup, and I think some free home delivery
You should call your local store for pickup hours.
I dropped a rental this way, and picked up a Airturn pedal this way.

other than Long and McQuade.. I don't think I know of any guitar parts company in Canada. but they can get you just about anything.
or try Amazon.ca you'd be surprised what you can get in a day mostly at reasonable prices.. some awful prices too.
if you purchase from the USA and it's under a certain amount it's duty free (think around $20. unless they upped it to $50).. also when ordering from the USA..
avoid couriers.. UPS/FedEx/Purolator they all charge a brokerage fee that's absolutely obscene.
stick to USPS the plain old postal system. and many times goes uninspected so no duty at all

I've never seen the bridge saddles all the way to the back before.
Something says to me there is another problem not addressed and a heavier guage string won't address this

Normally people put in the title of their post like a subject..ie SG sharp on chords not normally their name.
But you comment on open position chords are sharp,
Don't press the strings all the way to the fret board.

A few topics here on static.
Gibson and others mentioned to use dryer sheets on the plastic covers on the back.
Some knock it up to the nitro drying and reacting to the clothes until it dries more

I like RS Guitar Works Pots
https://rs-guitarworks.myshopify.com/collections/rs-vintage-upgrade-kits
Pricey but you can use 1 to 3 and 8 to 10 on the dial. unlike the 'standard' pots

Any chance they'd sound better hand wired rather than on the PCB?
No
Buy a different set

Looks like a nice Hummingbird.

Always the nut behind the strings.
Sorry had too 😶

Although this is a Gibson forum.
Many of us have more than 1 guitar.
Stated last week the Fender Guitar forum will shutdown March 20, 2020.
Join in other social media such as Facebook and Twitter

Gibson released a statement saying they're not suing Heritage Guitar
They said they "reminded Heritage of their contract they signed when the two split up"
-
There is a single screw on either side of the pickup and a spring on the underside of the screw to the pickup base plate to provide tension.

I see Long & Mcquade showing a B2
And Steve's music Toronto showing the TRB Gig
By description can't tell whe the difference is, you'll have to go to the stores

Oh at first I hadn't seen what you're talking about,
Strings seemed over the poles of the pickups.
Wasn't till I zoomed in on your nut.
Maybe post a big clear picture of the nut hosted by imgur.com or something instead of the thumbnail provided by the forum.
Yeah I'd make them fix it

Also remember he used a variac to lower the input AC voltage to get that mushy "brown" sound
Of course he knew nothing about tube bias and fry the tubes

Without any puctures, It'd be close to guessing what color car you have.
And subject line same as your user name doesn't help

My guitars have picked me, I don't pick them.
I walk into a store wander around, don't get any feeling.
Next day walk into the same store wander around don't get any feeling.
One walk in, one day, and a guitar whispers try me.
That's the one I pick up.
Could take months of this process

They won't reissue the COA
See the responses in the Custom section

Don't think there's anything to "worry " other then some light esthetic.
Bindings are put on, guitar is stained/painted/nitro lacquer, then bindings are scrapped by hand with a razor blade.
Its possible to have some stain /lacquer residue

There are 2 points for the pickup to pivot on.
Put a block of foam in the pickup cavety when the pickup is lowered it compresses the foam and keeps the pickup from twisting

Hmm the Google drive link worked the other day.
I do remember seeing a guitar with a volute at the back of the head stock.
But we need pictures posted from a more permanent source
