DetroitBlues Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Is that strat an air guitar??? There aren't any strings on it... What's the story with the other two you have? They look nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolero Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 sforsa I love that goldtop if you decide to put a pickguard on it, I think it would look better with the stock Heritage pickguard though funny, I have grown to prefer them over the straight Gibson style...plus it's a brand identifier, I want it to be clear to anyone that I'm playing a *Heritage* & not trying to disguise it as a Gibson thought I posted in this thread but I guess not....apologies as these are still the only decent pics, need a new camera YIN: YANG: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millennium Maestro Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Zebras...... LOL I have a TB-5 Duncan custom Bridge with a 59er in the neck. I adjusted the tonepros bridge for the Trembucker spacing and set it up with my hybrid 10/11 strings 10-52 and last but not least she has a slim neck(favorite). When I got her home, I opened her up to find a wonderful sight.... Tagged 150 ULTRA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidsmoke Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 i have yet to take any truly exceptional photos of my 535, but in the meantime..... 2002 H-535 ASB with "blackbacks" (Jazz and Custom Custom) Bob...(iim7v7im7) I note that you have imperials in your 535. wonder what you were going for when you went that route? You seem pretty thoughtful/intentional in your decisions regarding this stuff with a MUCH broader frame of reference than I. They've been on my short list for some time as a replacement for the p'ups in my guitar. I emailed Jason Lollar, and he recommends Low Wind Imperials, which he personally plays on his personal jobber guitar, a 335. I'm wondering what your criteria was for the choice, and if they met your expectations? As for the short list.....it's the standard PAF wish list, amended for budget (ThroBaks not an option, of course, SD just too "mainstream",etc) I've considered Seths and Antiquities, Fralin's, Sheptones...really it would be a roll of the dice.....hence my question. Gorgeous guitars, all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgeous guitars, all. At the time I was specing my guitar, I had already had a great experience with putting Lollar P-90s (which are outstanding) in my Valley Arts guitar. Jay Wolfe at the time liked both Seth Lovers and Lollar Imperials. I had also heard great things about Throbaks as well. Going with Lollar's low-winds was an easy decision based on my experience and my trust in Jay. I have been very pleased with them. I use the guitar mostly to play the blues and not for jazz. Others around here can likely help you more than I with comparisons. Jason winds some great pick-ups! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iim7v7im7 Posted May 1, 2012 Author Share Posted May 1, 2012 So you have the Low Winds, not the standard, slightly hotter "Imperials"? No, I actually went for the regular winds for a thicker sound. I have both single coil and P-90 based guitars and wanted contrast in tonality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
