The world is flat, you know. :) Sound bytes when you're done? Well, I was actually hoping for less gain. But in seriousness the neck pickup kept cutting in and out and no one knew exactly why. The previous owner thought it was a pot and my father thought it was the switch, so we just want to be sure. Yes I will have sound clips when I'm done.

ChanMan Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Coolness! I'm curious about how they'll sound :) Good luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbabig Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 The owner before actually had in the hottest seymour duncan available in the bridge and a JBL in the neck, I'll be damned if there isn't a difference. The previous owner is a really cool guy too, and he was a luthier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duane v Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 I like lower output pups as well All my newer Gibby's I replaced with mid 70's to early 80's Gibby pups..... The 490R and T's just dont do it for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbabig Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 Update: The previous wiring job is a mess! so many spliced wires, had one hell of a time putting the pickups in their rings, until I had the brilliant idea of cutting the spring down shorter than the screw, then they went right in. Should be done soon though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
