Even Better

You may have seen my previous post, where I discussed electrifying my little Truetone/Kay. I really like it, and I plan on playing it at Herman's Hideaway, on the the 19th of this month.  But, I didn't think that the pickup I put in it really fit the vintage vibe:


So, I pulled a vintage (1960s) DeArmond out of the parts stash, this afternoon, and replaced the Strat-style pickup.


It not only looks better, but it sounds awesome, as well.


I don't much care for the strings, though. I am going to restring it with my normal gauges and go from there. Other than that, the guitar is just about perfect!

    Jon,
    For some reason, I thought you had closed shop. I was wrong. Glad to see you are blogging away.

    Peace :)

Sorry about the word verification. I know you hate it...I hate it, too. But, the Spambots are suddenly coming out of the woodwork, and this is my first line of defense against them.

Anonymous comments are still gladly accepted.

So, all humans are welcome. Spambots can go to Hell.
