Yes indeed! much better!! It was weird, before, I liked the sound of the stock pickups, but they reminded me more of a tele neck pickup than a toneful PAF or PAT# , but these get it, maybe not as well as a 58-59 LP but thats a bit out of my league... Since these pictures I've added a second mini ...

Modification to Black Beauty & 'Faux-Buckers'
Okay so a few of you may have seen this guitar in the showcase, well I did some modifications... The original toggle was pooched so i opted to get a new 2 pickup toggle and wired the middle pickup to be controlled by its own mini toggle and to share the neck volume and tone controls. I also added ...

190$ after taxes,
at first i was a bit unsure of the bolt on neck, but of course the fact that it [/i]is a black beauty i decided to go for it. It needs a trim ring for the middle pickup (wrong size) and a couple of the pots need to be cleaned. I did add up a set of black tophats knobs to replace ...

I was really suprised at how low the action was, I'm used buying a guitar and then adjusting the intonation, neck, bridge the works, but this one was perfect. The middle pickup, although cool, does get abit annoying after bumping the pick of it a couple dozen times (maybe thats why the plating is ...

eL Degas Les Paul 'Black Beauty' 3 pickup
Okay I'm not sure if these pictures will work but i'm gonna give it a shot! I'm hoping you guys might know how to date this guitar to a specific year? I'm not even sure if it has any type of serial# on it. I found it the other day at the local pawn shop while me and the drummer were looking for a ...
