FACT: it is a great guitar!
Unfortunately my Telecaster blows it away when I A/B'd it at home. Need some P90 or PAF type pups ... missing these.   
So..trading as soon as possible.
Probably try Sound Affects in Ormskirk as not been and they have a good range of electrics.
Keeping this one .. pups changing when I can afford to.

    Bought new or used? I'd replace the pickups if you like everything else about it. It's a great looking guitar.

    B stock...small superficial scratch to rear so great price. Yep, repkace pups is a good shout.
    Full humbucker sized P90s?
    Thanks Jon

    I'd go P90 neck and alnico ii PAF in the bridge but really up to you.

    Definitely Bare Knuckles.

    Yeah, Sounds Affects is a great shop.

  • What do you not like about the existing pickups? I’ve been looking at one of these so am curious. Cheers

    I'll jump in here as I also have one of these guitars - it's a little hard to explain but to me the pickups come across as being a little muddy or uninspiring. It sits on the guitar rack and I find that I just don't really reach for it (so I ended up sticking it in Open G and using it for Slide).

    They are fine pups...just my Tele pups are more open and clearer which I prefer.

    sorry, but EVERY guitar has at least one redeeming feature/PUP setting - as does every pedal... and amp... Give it time.

    True...pup change and time to bond doable and probably sensible/possible, but I need to sell really for £ reasons. See for sale post!
