That's one sexy goldtop machinehead - I always like looking at that one... :D

My number 1 guitar hasn't changed in 8 years or so - even with the addition of a Fender Strat Plus and a Yamaha SG2000.

This is my Gibson Les Paul Classic, with Emerald pickups.

[HairyChris]

I have been really happy with the stock pickups, especially the neck although I know I am probably in the minority.

I think PRS pickups are very good, the people there know what they're doing.  We tend to get carried away on here, saying everything needs replacing with BKPs, but there are loads of other great pickups in the world.

Having said that, I am replacing the pickups on my Mira - with Cold Sweats as it happens - because the stock ones are just a little too warm and vintagey.  I want it to be more of a rocker.

The RPs are really, REALLY nice. Put them in a stoptail Cu22 and you'll not be disappointed! Great definition and immensely, um, immense sounding. Matched my old Mesa Recto great - the combination of slightly vintage pickup and modern amp worked. OK I've since sold both the amp and guitar but that was a usage vs cashflow issue, nothing to do with the tone! :(

HFS/VB... The VB was a little sterile, and the HFS seemed a bit uncontrolled. The CS set fixed both of these points - livening up the neck position and giving more definition at the bridge. My opinion, anyway, and the rosewood neck may have introduced some characteristics that didn't agree with the stock set. ;)

I KNOW! I've been gassing for an Organic Mono ever since i saw one in Guitar Buyer!

Hows it play/sound Stu?

[Stu]

It's the nicest playing guitar I every tried/owned thanks mostly to the immaculate neck heel joint. The sounds has quite strong mids and with the tone rolled off it does a great jazz sound (this caused me to sell my gretch 6120)
With the coils split it does a passable strat style sound but its never going to sound like a standalone single coil setup. The bridge pickup gives quite an aggressive lead tone although thats coming from someone who doesn't play really heavy music.
It was the fist lefty that Duncan built and so it doesn't have the BKP's that he builds them with now, just a Duncan JB and Jazz. I'm thinking of getting some BKP's for it but will have to wait to get my new Gus G1 to avoid being guitar-less.
Let me know if you want to know anything else.

[WezV]

seriously!! the only guitar you have is an organic soon to be joined by a Gus.... awesome!!! ;)
