monty Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Hello Anyone changed the pickups on a Korean made Casino? Can anyone recommend any Pickups? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Nazarenie Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 if the magnets are ceramic try some alnico magnets. you need 4 for 2 pickups.my vintage av3p had a combo of ceramic and alnico in each pickup. failing that you need pickup rings for mini hums or mini birds (gfs do them.) they also do the wild dog:http://store.guitarfetish.com/gfswdoovovra1.html not sure how you would secure them on a casino though!

Notes_Norton Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 The original owner of my Casino put Duncans in it. The result is the Casino sounds a little better than my 1970 stock Gibson ES-330 to my ears. Insights and incites by Notes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strumbone Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Now monty, you know that's a personal decision based on your ears and what you like. I put a set of S-D Antiquities in my Sherri to get that PAF tone, and now I'm completely satisfied, but YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianh Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 GFS for price, but the boutique answer is: http://www.lollarguitars.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=p90-pickups and: http://www.vintagevibeguitars.com/pickups.html or: http://www.fralinpickups.com/p90s.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fair price is just an added benefit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monty Posted March 6, 2010 Author Share Posted March 6, 2010 thanks everyone for the tips....Are the GFS a direct install without any mods needing to be done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianh Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 thanks everyone for the tips....Are the GFS a direct install without any mods needing to be done? Should be - P90 screw hole and mounting spacing is fairly universal. But as with any mods, take measurements and check the mfr specs carefully.....
