    A FUN UPGRADE PROJECT

    Happy NGD, very nice. That would make a really nice Robbin Crosby tribute guitar. Would like to make one myself someday.

    Anyone else find this attractive?

    I'd definitely rock out the Flamed one for sure. Looks a lot like C.C.'s flamed San Dimas. Looks pretty damn cool to me. :cool:

    Schecter Guitars

    I have an 08 Damien Special FR I bought new back in 08. It's a great playing, great sounding and solid built guitar. Switched out the pups from the stock HZ's (H4-H4A) with a set of GFS VEH's back around 2010. More recently I removed the neck pup, 3 way toggle and the tone pot and added a mini...

    Have you built a Tribute guitar?

    I've thought about turning my Epi LP Standard Ebony into a Vivian Campbell style tribute w/x2n's or GFS Power Rails and some brass knobs. I would keep it glossy though. I already tried pulling the poker chip and pickguard to get an idea if I'd like it, and I would. :cool:

    Adding pickups covers.

    Just use some bubble gum like MacGyver would use to stick them on. Probably Wrigley's Spearmint/Doublemint would be best. Maybe wedge some uncoated metal paperclips between the baseplate and covers for a snug secured fit. That should take of any grounding issues and any possible vibrations as well.

    Your most 80's looking guitar

    My 20' Epi LP Standard 60's is another very 80's rocker. I grew up on MTV and so many great players were slinging them. So when I think 80's guitars, an LP is one that jumps out at the top of my list. :cool:

    Epiphone 57 classics… REALLY!?!?!

    The ProBuckers in my 20' Epi Standard 60's sounds great IMHO, especially after removing the covers. There was basically no wax in them besides a paper thin layer on top of the bobbins to isolate the cover. 90% of that came off with the cover. I'm sure they were potted but absolutely no excess...

    Worst pedals ever

    The Rocktek's were all plastic as well, at least the series like pictured was. And, it says a lot when the Ibanez Classic Metal Soundtank was a big improvement (since people seem to hate on it anyways). I had the Soundtank for about 6 years before someone stole it from me. Durability was never...

    Worst pedals ever

    My 1st distortion pedal was the Rocktek Distortion DIR-01 (exactly like the one pictured). Think I payed $20 new for it. That thing was awful, Just a thin tin can Buzzsaw distortion. I kept it for like 25 years or so because I felt like I needed to keep it away from the rest of the world. I...
