Re: UH OHS! I boughtsted a guitar

Neat!

As cool as three-pickup LP's look, I can't play them - middle pickup gets in my way.

How much did this set you back?

That is awesome. Very nice score.

Sure! Come on down to Indy and we'll avoid the Super Bowl and play guitars.

$775 shipped and paypal'd.

I don't know about the middle pickup yet. Maybe it'll bug me and maybe it won't. I buy used guitars at risk because I know I can flip if something doesn't jive.

FWIW the middle pickup on strats doesn't bother me and I had no issues with a EB Steve Morse either, so I'm assuming it'll be fine. I'm not a "deep" picker I guess.

Dude, you're like Peter Frampton with a completely different set of circumstances! LOL

Financial circumstances, certainly!

I've never had three pickups on one guitar to know if the middle one gets in the way. I feel deprived.

Re: UH OHS! I boughtsted a guitar

Besides my Strats, I only have one three pup guitar...an SG Custom. I must be a pretty deep picker because that middle pup gets in the way...not much but a little.

Aside from the physical inconvenience of the middle pup, there is the tonal inconvenience.

I just don't see any tonal advantage to that middle pup and no matter how I have wired that thing it just doesn't get me any decent tones. Plus it's a pain in the neck to deal with, electrically (I've tried various ways to wire it but they are all pretty clumsy).

I'm ending up with the middle pup not wired at all, just the neck and bridge, typical 50's LP wiring. Leaving the middle pup in just for looks, but adjusting it low and out of the way of my pick.

Now that I've said that.....

Nice looking guitar.

Makes me remember my 1969 Gibby LP Custom, black with cream rings and gold metal. A real beaut.

Re: UH OHS! I boughtsted a guitar

I got a new guitar too. I just bought it, but it won't be here for about another week. Here it is.

That's the one with 3 Vintage Rails Chris De Garmo played, right?

Re: UH OHS! I boughtsted a guitar

wow, killer lookin axe. the middle pickup would destroy my life as well, but maybe if you hit it enough with your pick it will erode away like the grand canyon over the course of many decades.
