Always wanted one of these.   I have a 550, 575 and SKB- so this one slots nicely in a missing spot as a 17 inch solid wood spruce top masterwork that I can gig with since I don't play my SKB at clubs/restaurants/bars.  Nice bonus- comes with fitted Doug's Plugs to make it all the more gig-worthy without feedback issues.  Should arrive late next week.  Pickups are Schaller Golden 50's, which I've never played but the guys at Jay Wolfe's shop tell me they are on the bright and articulate side, kind of like HRWs.   Will probably swap them out, but we'll see.  I've been surprised before by pickups  that I thought I wouldn't like, but turned out to be great in a specific guitar.  More to come....

Anyone here have  experience with Golden 50's?  If so, please let me know your thoughts.

Picture from the guys at Wolfe:

That's a beauty. I saw that guitar at Jay's place when I bought my H530.  Pictures do not do your guitar justice. Congratulations and enjoy.

That’s great to hear.  Thanks.  Always a little bit of a crap shoot when buying on line.  But Jay and team at Wolfe are super professional, reliable and they have the really good stuff (like HOC member owned Green Oak).  They have never steered me wrong.  I always have confidence buying from them.
