Spectrum13 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 That's a honey of a 150. I would change the bridge for aesthetic reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The anniversary of Seth Lover creating the humbucking pickup. I've had a set of the signed Seth's and they were great! I was dying to try another set of boutique pickups, which frankly, weren't any better than the Seths! I think you should dump the Schaller bridge though and get a proper ABR Fred as just the aesthetics alone, with that killer top, would make it worth it, and I wouldn't doubt it would change the sound for the better (as I've posted here many times before, I like The Faber tone-loc with the deeper german steel body inserts that take about 5 minutes to install)... https://faberusa.com/product-category/faber-tone-lock/master-kit/heritage/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pressure Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 When in doubt ask Kuz. I have the Goldtop with ThroBak humbuckers he sold when you bought his p90 Goldtop. I believe he put Faber parts on both of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what's left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
