    Muddy and Dark P90s

    Tim Shaw or T-Tops?

    I have a very early Shaw, it has all the right parts they were using for the Shaw design but it has T-top bobbins. The early ones used leftover T-top bobbins. It's a transitional Shaw pickup.

    Mismatched top on Gibson RMA LP

    My R9 has a mismatched top but it's still a beautiful guitar & the way it plays there is no way I would ever get rid of it. The top has my favorite type of flame & the mismatch never bothers me. If the guitar is a good one the top is secondary.

The angled ends are Van Damme (I think they might be manufactured by Nuetrik) & the straight ends are Nuetrik.

    Question about my T Top pickup.

    Hey guys, a few years ago one of my friends bought a lot of 10-12 guitars of Craigslist. He gave me an Aria SG. It had a cracked body so I took it apart to repair it & found both pickups were non original. The one in the neck ended up being a transitional Shaw which is really cool, it sounds...
