  • My First Pup Swap

    Hey guys I just successfully completed my first pickup swap. I replaced my crappy stock pickups in my Epi LP with a set of '59's. I also replaced the stock pots with CTS 500k ones and a new switch and jack. Sounds killer so far. I will prolly be replacing the bridge '59 with a C-5 in the near future though, if I can find one for the right price in the trading post or on eBay.
    Looking to Purchase:
    Axe-FX Ultra
    ART SLA2
    Mesa Boogie 2X12
    PRS Tremonti
    PRS Singlecut, SC245 or SC250
    Edwards Les Paul Custom
    Gibson Explorer
    Fender Stratocaster
    Fender Telecaster

      Way to go Lee Bob!

      Swapping out that 59 for a C5 could be a tough choice. I have one of each, (59/59 and 59/C5), and I couldn't live without either.

      The good news is, there's usually someone in the trading post with a C5 for sale or trade.

        I thought it would be an easy choice but i was very mistaken. From the little bit that i have played my guitar since the swap I am really digging the tones I'm getting from the '59b under high gain. The '59n is exactly what I was looking for. The smooth leads and beautiful cleans.
