  1. God your some memory man, I forgot I posted that, you were the one that had the same t shirt though weren't you? Fair play :L
  2. yeeeepppa ^^


  3. Usually see natural maple or tobacco finish Casino's. So it is a definite treat to see a cherry finish. If it sounds half as good as it looks -- it must sound fantastic.

  4. It sounds great, sooo much better than my LP
  5. Was it an Epi LP or a no-brand one?
  6. Epi, just could never get a really nice sound out of it


  7. Did you sell the Epi LP? If not, I could recommend some pickups that will have it sounding far better.


  8. Nah I traded it back in because the treble setting kept breaking and used the credit to buy the Casino, thanks though
  9. Speaking of pickup rec's, Jeff, do you have any recommendations for a PRS Singlecut SE?



    I've been looking to upgrade since the stock pickups are still in, and while I'm not UNHAPPY with the way they sound, I feel like I could be getting something better out of the guitar.

    Also, please share your recs for the Epi Les Pauls...I've got an old one that needs severe updating.
  10. It all comes down to trying and testing my friend. If you google 'what are good humbuckers", everyone has a different opinion. It all comes down to how much you're willing to spend on testing different humbuckers.

    If you want a hotter sound, you want ceramics, if you want a brighter cleaner tone, go for alnico magnets. I've heard great things about the Gibson 57 (neck) and Gibson 57 Plus (bridge) combo, and I'll be putting that in my Les Paul around Christmas. But again, I've heard great things about Burstbuckers, some of the Seymour Duncan stuff, some of the Dimarzio sets, etc.

    I'm sure Jeff has tested more than I have though, so wait for him to reply! I know you asked for his opinion in the first place, but I thought I'd give mine too That's what the forums all about!

    T-Tops are what Edge has in his LP Customs & Explorers.

    Seymour Duncan Seth Lovers are really good. They have a nice warm sound and are similar in tone to The Edge's.

    Gibson Les Paul Music Rising have a Gibson 490R at the neck and 498T at the bridge - Burstbucker Pro pickups.

    I don't recommend ceramic pickups for Edge tones. To my ears, they are a bit too 'metal'-y.
  12. Thanks a lot everyone! I'm not sure how to really "test" pickups without buying them and using them, and that gets expensive..
