Thanks guys :) I don't think this is my best work as I wrote/recorded it all in about an hour after a quick, rare flash of inspiration - first original thing I've done for quite some time.
Derek, I'm really tempted to put the p90s in my SG as I can't afford another set of BKPs yet, but I dunno whether it's wise to mess with the LP they're in as it sounds so good and they seem to suit it well.. P90s are really good for heavier stuff, I much prefer their tone for most heavy stuff to humbuckers tbh.
I would think a temporary transplant might be in order ? I ( rather masochistically ) have tried three sets of pick ups in the current Ibanez archtop , and the previous 335 type copy - and you know what 'fun'
that is ... :lol:
At least in a solid body, the changeover is quite painless, if only to try / confirm your favourite 'home' for them. I like to take that chance, to re- polish the frets, oil and buff the fretboard - and generally catch up with the 'housekeeping' of the temporarily empty guitar. That way you win both ways.
Do remember to get a few objective listeners ( in the room / with the amp e.t.c ) to hear the S.G. and Les Paul 'as is' before swapping ; for the listener's angle on these things. I tend to find that I can't always hear my own guitar objectively after the swap. Lubricating the 'Panel of Judges ' with strong liquour works well : not as bribery, but because they'll remember how that combination
felt, and not just sounded. :)
Do let me know how the experiment turned out ; and if you ever get the almost
deranged need to have two sets of M.Q.s , give me a nudge, as mine are now in the 'Box of precious things'. Not an advert, just an observation as I type.
:)
