I spoke with MJ last night and ordered a CS scatterwound slightly overwound (14.75K) Custom Custom with A2 magnet of course and Antiquity hardware with Gibson style single conductor wire. This will reside in a 2004 LP Standard with a CS Slash spec A2Pro neck pickup and RS Guitarworks Premium cap and pot upgrade.
I also ordered a CS scatterwound by MJ 59/CC Hybrid. I figured since so many forum members have made these I would go to the pro and let her do the job. This will have Antiquity hardware, open double black coils, Gibson braided single conductor wire and A2 magnet and will measure 11.25K. It will reside in a new Gibson Custom Shop '57 Refin that will be aged to resembel Slash's '87 Standard that he used during the Illusion tour and currently uses for Fall To Pieces in the VR live show. Again, the neck PU is a Slash spec A2Pro from MJ.
BTW, the '57 Refins are great guitars since they are Historic spec with long neck tenon and good electronics. They have an off-center top seam as if someone stripped a Goldtop and converted it to a Burst. They are in the $2250 price range at Dave's Guitar SHop and WIldwood Guitars.
I am also using 4 other Historic LP's all with either Slash spec A2Pros from the Custom Shop or in the case of my 2 Slash Signature guitars, stock APH-1's. I am pretty excited aince I am rejoining my original hard rock band here in Philly. They are getting bigger and better crowds and larger rooms in the region. I think a deal is just around the corner. I will tell more soon!(don't want to jinx anything ya know!!!)
