Emotional Discombobulation Alert!!!
I know some more gentle souls are distressed by the disharmony here.

This thing is a great tool and has been a reliable source of vintagey Ash Strat sweet goodness.
The poly body however is driving me nuts. It would survive a Russian drone strike without so much as a scratch.

But the 3 different coloured pups goes some way to soothing my inner anarchist.

The middle pickup is original and gives a reference point for the other two.
The neck is a CS Fender '54 from my parts box.
The black bridge is a Kingdom from Nipplewrestler.

Both are way hotter than the originals; Kansas has gone byebye. I don't think the Princeton is the right amp for this so the 61SRT will be next. I think if I'd had this configuration during my gigging days, the Korinacaster may have had less work though that's not really a plus. Anyway, I'm just fiddling cos I can (and I don't own an actual fiddle.)

I have 2 words that will fix that Poly abomination. HEAT GUN.

Thought of it, but this is a USA G&L and I can't see any point in destroying what residual value it still holds.

You should colour coordinate the knobs as well

Nah, that's being pretentious.

Yeah you're probably right. The only thing I ever seem to get put of doing this sort of thing is experience.

Deliberately mismatched pickup covers is already pretentious - you may as well go for gold

Not deliberate; I tried to use the G&L covers but they didn't fit.

I have more than enough 'experience' for one lifetime!

Meanwhile Leo is spinning in his grave with the thought of his discipline Slowy mutilating one of his finest creations, and....lusting after a Les Paul.

It's a mad mad world!

Not lusting after a Lester at all.
Lesters and Harleys; both lovely to look at, preferably while bolted to the wall of the mancave.


Oh Lawd, now I'm for it!
