You have cleverly avoided the word "Relic" ;)
That pickguard reminds of an Antigua pickguard. Might be an option to :p
I measured from the strings. I will try to repeat the experiment next weekend and take pictures. See if I can post it on YouTube
No, I changed the pickguard by putting a capo on the first fret, loosening the strings and unbolting the neck. So same strings before and after....
Never rated positively so it can't be overrated. Overpriced it was.
@Lonn I don't mind you having a different opinion or experience and expressing them for us to discuss. That is what forums are for. I do mind...
Will try that.
Well, it appears you haven't read the post in it's entirety. I went in sceptical but curious. I've tried to do it as controlled as possible and I...
I think three springs on the end of their stretch are more stable and consistent than 5 barely breaking a sweat and have lots of play left. But...
Beautiful guitar. However, mine has a maple neck and I'm not sure mint green works with maple. Most of the colours I like work better with...
Maybe isolating the pickguard from ground with electrical tape between pots, switch and such? I don't know how that would work but please let me...
This doesn't work like that when your amp is compressing the signal. Your ear could work logarithmic but the valves don't necessarily.
On TGP somebody even suggested that an aluminium pickguard can have this effect on some guitars and not on others. Very mystical material ;)

Thanks but I have ruled out white. The original pickguard was plain white. Probably vintage correct but I thought it looked cheesy 80' vibe with...
Very specific . Thanks
I'm going to remove the gold anodised pickguard because of the perceived tone loss (described in a thread in tech-talk). I love the look of this...
I've started a thread on this on this on TGP but I thought I would inform you over here as well. I have an ESP 400 series strat from around '84....
The P90s pickups are the best P90s Gibson makes. Really ballsy but with a really nice "true single coil" clarity and top end. Not very popular...
I missed this while researching this. Thanks.
The bridge plate with the pivot point behind the screws is the original ESP plate. The other one is the plate I got second hand because of the...
Well, no opinions. Which is a rare thing here. I have tried both bridge plates and this is what I found . The top plate. With the pivot point...
I was replacing/upgrading the tremolo block on my guitar and I noticed that there was a difference between the pivot points of the two bridge...
Sorry. I couldn't resist. I'm out. Greets
