Build quality

    Source

Mods and upgrades

  • A simple resolder was needed for a pickup selector issue; otherwise, electronics were reliable.

    Source
  • Owners suggest swapping stock pickups for Seymour Duncan '59s for a smoother tone, ideal for songs like "Sleepwalk" by Les Paul.

"Another of my favorite guitars, this axe is currently fitted with GFS Pro Series Alnico II humbuckers, although the original stock Alnico V pickups are amazing as well!"
