worldwidehoodoo Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 hello- does anyone have a picture of a natural colored casino with black p90s? i have a lennon revolution casino from the late 90s (the numbered ones) and the pups are on the fritz. the bridge pickup is more or less unusable, and the neck is hanging by a thread. since this puppy came to me with a bad headstock repair, i don't have any qualms about it being non-original. i had the bad headstock repair re-done, and it's now rock solid. i'll never sell this guitar, and it's becoming my main squeeze! i'd like to have the black p90 covers because they have less feedback problems and sound "better" according to many. the problem is that i love the original look! so, if anyone has a picture of a natural-colored casino with black p90s, i'd love to see it. thanks!

tweed2 Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 You mean like this? Then comes the question, which pickups to get. Here's the progression that I went through, from stock, to present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't the black just a cover, or is the p'up inside different? The black p'ups LOOK awesome on the natural finish, but how big a difference would it really make, sonically?

The black p'ups LOOK awesome on the natural finish, but how big a difference would it really make, sonically? The PUs on my guitar are Vintage Vibe. As far as stock PUs go, I don't know if the black covered PUs available on say, a P93, have the same body as a chrome covered one. Before I changed mine, I did a little research on having stock ones rewound and the covers changed. Both Jason Lollar and Pete Biltoft (Vintage Vibe) won't change the covers and they charge more to rewind a stock pickup than to build a new one. Neither like to mess with the covers, some I'm guessing it's a pain, if doable at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
