dc3c46 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 What is the hype with these "bumble bee " caps? The new '59 335 RI has them and a lot of guys seem to change their caps for these. Any of you guys did so as well? Is there a notable difference in tone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Plains Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I did. Yes in one guitar, no in the other. The ones that come stock in Gibson reissues are not real Bees. Real Bees are paper in oil caps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
