I'll try to remember that. It came with someone's generic pups. (It may say somewhere, but I don't recall seeing it). I figure if the body is reasonably good, I can add Grover tuners or better pickups or anything, really. <br /><br />As for the color, I sanded it and re-stained it last night and it doesn't look as nice. <br /><br />Plan B (or C or whatever is last) is spray paint. <br /><br />SiGraybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280583031339062059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-8962103295701092562015-02-17T04:04:21.159-05:002015-02-17T04:04:21.159-05:00Anything you put over the top of that stain is lik...Anything you put over the top of that stain is likely to change the perceived color at least a wee bit. <br /><br />Lots of dark red 335s out there, I like the color.<br /><br />Can't tell a whole lot from that photo, but the bindings look good,.<br /><br />What pups are you dropping in there?<br /><br />I happen to have a spare set of SD Vintage Blues, which I didn't use in the last rebuild, went for the four-conductors instead.<br /><br />All yours if you want 'em.<br /><br />Bill Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11931310903208268429noreply@blogger.com
