Title: Need help with my situation...
Post by: DeathShredder23 on October 15, 2011, 03:36:39 AM

I have a gibson les paul studio and am very interested in purchasing a set of aftermath pickups. The problem is, i dont understand on the website where it says, vintage long leg/modern short, and where it says standard or wide space bridge, and, lastly, the option of choosing bolts or screws. Its a gibson les paul with a TOM bridge and standard gibson 490-498 alnico pickups. Based on the information provided here, can someone help with my question(s). You know, about which options i shoud choose, so that i dont end up purchasing a set of pickups that i cant use? Thanks for clearing up the confusion guys. Much appreciated.

Long legs-deeper hole-gibson style guitars..Short legs-shallow hole-Ibanez type guitars...Spacing-50mm-stop tail-for Gibson style..53mm-floyd rose-Ibanez type...Also if you want to split coils use 4 cond. wiring...You could order short legs in case that you have several guitars with different measurements so you can easy swap these pickups for any one..Srews/bolts option let you chose between clasic head screw or alan/hex type of bolts used on warpigs for example...

So LP is 50mm spacing,long legs,4 cond. wiring,finish what you like 8)
