Eddie85 Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 I recently received a gorgeous 2005 supreme for christmas. Who ever had this guitar before put a .09 string set on it and the action is all jacked up and the bridge and tail peice are messed up as well. My concern is that when I pulled the pickups out, the back read epiphone and I cant find anything on that particular year model about what kind of pickups actually came in it. I think the previous owner pulled the originals out and replaced them with cheaper ones. Any input would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Plains Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Gibson's website says they have 490/498 pickups. Supremes are one of the most faked Les Paul models. Post pictures of the headstock, front and back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
