ICBM's comment has now got me thinking about pickups. I tend to judge guitars unplugged on the basis that there is a whole world of pickups out there. But the fact is that Gibson planted the same pickups across the model range in most of their Historic guitars (57 Classics early on. And then Burstbuckers). Seemingly no attempt to even replicate T-tops - never mind the difference between the early PAF and the '59 PAF!! Surely that was a mistake. Just lazy on their part?
Yes - I admit it. My 73 Les Paul Custom did sound really good once it was actually plugged in. But unplugged seemed a bit dead. And Heavy.

It's tempting.
