A+ for twotimingpete. Thanks again. I said I would never buy, sell, or trade anything on HC again after getting stiffed on a deal a few years ago, but Matt has restored my faith in you guys.

Originally posted by straightblues I would say spend some time with the stock humbucker first. It sounds very nice. In fact, I have bought some that others have removed to put in my other guitars. Try it, you might like it. It does get p90 type tones (not exactely but close). I agree. I played a '51 for a while one day and I thought the bridge humbucker was a great sounding pickup. But I can't tolerate a maple fretboard so I didn't buy the guitar.
