But £20k, so sort of more than double over the going price, for dubious provenance pickups from someone who has already lied on their advert.
Yeah... Nope.
Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.

Sounds like it could be just another 'Player grade vintage' bitsa.
Does the "confirmation bias" wiki entry cover denying someone's obvious dishonesty because you know them personally?
Many of the replica sets out there today are accurately made to replicate the best PAF sets. IMO i would spend considerably less on a set from one of the many boutique makers out there.
Looks like a 2001 R8 to me.
Um ... no brainer in my book.

For accuracy, where did I state/claim/intimate/suggest that the seller was 'my mate'?
And no, I did not hear back from the seller, hence my not posting it here.
Read the whole thread from the beginning (if you can process that many words in one go) & you will find I started with the statement (true) " Firstly, I have no relationship or affiliation with the seller."
Followed by "Even if the guitar is genuine (no idea, but I think it could well be) I personally don't know why anyone would ever be considering selling the pickups separately, but really it's no-one's business but his own."
I always try to be polite to anyone posting here, even those disagreeing with me, but in your case I'm very much prepared to make an exception.
Night, xxx
Anyway my pots came out of an authentic Epiphone Les Paul I'll have you know so it should sound double authentic.

As for my 'proposed to drag the guy over here to put us all right'. I was simply inviting someone to put their own point, rather than myself (or anyone else). It is called being non judgemental & fair.
Try re-reading my initial post as it was written, in an even handed, neutral way, then you might not see so many non existent implications or accusations.
Where I made a mistake, was in naively initially defending the seller as being based on my then knowledge of him.
Subsequent postings in the thread have cast doubts upon that position, but I won't be spending time in researching it as it is yesterdays news.
Ironic given the above that you're now not going to bother to find out why you were wrong about the OP. That's the literal definition of confirmation bias. Or maybe your wit is so unbelievably dry and arch that I'm not getting the joke.
Anyway, you know, peace out, etc.
Not neutral and even-handed. Pointed and condescending and absolutely containing an implication/accusation. Otherwise why say it?
