The only real differences in the MIM and MIA standards are the pick-ups and the tremlo. Take the PUPs and TREMLO off a MIA and install them in your MIM and get a pro setup...

AC/DC plays pure rock..... Gibson into a Marshall is pure rock. His brother plays a different guitars to cut in and be heard.
While I don't like Rolling Stone magazine nor "lists" of any kind, I did find it funny they put EVH at #75 or something of the greatest guitarists of all time.
Just thought that was cute.
Same list that doesn't even include David Gilmour.....
