Nice guitars all round, but really digging Druz's carpet.

It's actually two single-coils. The top one is a strat pickup (tall and narrow coil) and the bottom one is like a jazzmaster pickup (short and wide). I think both have roughly the same number of winds. The jazzmaster coil in particular sounds amazing.

Cheers!

So do you mate. Sorry but that one is a keeper.

The other 2 stay in tune better and are much easier on the shoulder for a 4 hour gig, but there is some magic pixie dust in that LP that makes it hard to leave behind when packing for a gig, and as much as I try to spare my back, it's hard to resist playing it for the whole night.

No worries, even if you were selling it I could never go back to LPs. I like looking at it though.

Cheers :D

Not sure if serious about the polish, but I do wipe the sweat off regularly with a damp microfibre cloth. That's about it though.

Got a little bottle of lizard spit thrown in with a guitarparts.co.nz order, but haven't tried it out yet.

Yes, that LP does have something going for sure. It's pretty much stock, right?

Well, it must have had a great setup done at some point... Can you still call a Gibson stock after that? As far as I know no mods have been done.

I was actually looking forward to going through a few sets of pickups to find a set wound with unicorn hair and NOS alnico magnets that always point to magnet south, but the burst buckers in there sound too good to take out.
