denthevetteman78 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I have a 08 les paul standard that i upgraded the pickups with 490/498 Gibson and a swichcraft togle switch. There's a '08 Les paul ultra ll for sale for $450. Is it worth the trade or i will only get the nanomag in bonus because mine is flawless. Do ultra's use the same pickups that were on my LesPaul originally ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morkolo Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 According to the Epiphone website they use the same neck pickups but the Ultra II has a Alnico Classic Plus in the bridge whereas your standard uses a Alnico Classic. I'd keep the upgraded Standard and wait for something else to come along. By the way, beautiful Corvette in your signature. [thumbup] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denthevetteman78 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Thank you for your answer and for my corvette. So i have a better guitar now with my 490/498 pickups than with the utra. I might stick with mine because i really like it and it's the same color of my vette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigneil Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 You are left with only one course of action... Sell your wife and buy more guitars! Lol. If you still have the original pickups, you could swap them back before selling he you decide to go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
