Big Bill Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Don't be messing with your Lester. That thing is sweet just the way it is. :) If you start thinking of cutting holes in it, I am going to take it away from you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Plains Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 319, we need a thread of all the ideas you've had for modifying your guitar. That poor LP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KL Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 How? GLP1319 . . . if you ever see a used 3 pickup LP in a shop the cover on the middle pickup is often really worn because it is positioned where most people strum the strings. So your pick keeps striking the middle pup. Of course everybody has a different style of playing, but I have a feeling that this is one reason why the 3 pickup models have never been that popular.

Andre S Posted April 29, 2010 Author Share Posted April 29, 2010 319' date=' we need a thread of all the ideas you've had for modifying your guitar. That poor LP...[/quote'] Its not that many, besides I am happy to have a Les Paul Studio just a little different from everyone else. Without bothering with the dates: Changing Plastics to a Creme set, done over one year Dunlop Straploks installation Removal of pickup covers Faux Binding Changing pots and caps to RS guitarworks stuff and changing the config to 2V, Master T Installation of the mini toggle for the fishman powerbridge and powerchip... The last one the actual installation of the powerbridge will be in the late summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
