whats written in the p/up cavities.

[zeppelinled]

hi all,
taking out the neck p/up on my lp classic for the first time today, I was keen to see what was written inside, seeing as alot of finish types and colour codes are denoted on the bottom of the p/up cavity. In pencil mine seems to have the letters H S written in the neck cavity. Its a honey burst finish guitar, and I would have thought it would have H B denoting HoneyBurst. I may be wrong, it may well be H B seeing how a quickly and roughly written B could look alot like an S.

Heres a pic, its very very hard to see as the letters are in pencil. (I'll post a better one soon)
could anyone tell me what the H S stands for? as i said it could quite well be H B but its vey lightly written if not 'scribbled' in pencil making it very hard to read.

Try macro focusing or take the picture from a larger distance. It will be a lot clearer.

[Boleskinehouse]

Get over it.

Get over it.

hey, i just wanted to know- curiosity

 

[zeppelinled]

Get over it.

over what?

 

[Boleskinehouse]

It doesn't mean anything. You've been freaking out about every little detail since you got it, and as great as I think that is, there is nothing wrong with your Classic.

 

[zeppelinled]

thats a fair call. I'll respect that.

+1 to Boles' comment. I wondered that too for a second when I first got mine, but then I realized that it had absolutely NO bearing on the overall quality of the guitar whatsoever.

It's more than likely an abbreviation of the colour...HB=HoneyBurst, HCSB=Heritage Cherry Sun Burst, etc etc etc....

mine says"help,im being held prisoner in a guitar factory..."

Please don't ever post a picture like that again. You're going to put someone's eyes out.

Your sig is completely distracting me from reading your post!!

Anchent lore in guitar tonedom is that the #2 lead pencils used in 1959 added tone that cannot be reproduced now

 

[dspelman]

Worry only when you see, "Help me ! I'm being held prisoner and they're coming to " in a hasty scrawl.

What's in your pup cavity? Sustain? Long Tenon? Pickguard Off? Top Wrap? When you hafta play over a drummer, does it all even matter anymore?

 

[twinrider1]

Mine say......

..."Insert pup here."

Hard to see, but in the second picture, "NAT" is written in red.

Looks like a long neck tendon !!!!!!!!!

PS: 'HB/HS' stands for 'High Buoyancy/High Sustain"
