Pickup Replacement in a Jorma Kaukonen Riviera?


Yggdrasil

Recommended Posts

I have an early Jorma Sig, which I believe has pickups inferior to the Classic 57s found in the later-year production models of this guitar.

 

Jorma once told me that he thought the later pickups really improved the guitar.

 

So, I'm thinking of replacing the pups.

 

Looking around, I see that Gibson has a "57 Classic", Seymour Duncan the SH-1 & Dimarzio a PAF 36th Anniversary, all of which seem on the surface to be suitable upgrades.

 

1) has anyone done this upgrade?

 

2) will these pickups just drop in ?
