      HAhahaha . . . the advantage of working in the US.

      I am NEVER more than 15min car ride from a *HUGE book store, like 'Books-A-Million', or 'Barnes & Nobble'.
      There there is always amazon.com too.
      I can easily spent every weeks pay check on books, music gear and my sport (road cycling).


      * Exclusive Books looks like a street side Hot Dog stall, compared to the Randgurg Mall, i.e. Barnes & Nobble.

        How are those TV Jones PUP's. We have an AFS75T and have been GASsing for a PUP upgrade.
        Best upgrade i could have ever made for this guitar !

        As the YANKS say, it is a keeper - the guitar it is - and more "up-grades" to come.
        Next is a GraphTech nut, and saddle saver bridge.

        Getting back to the PU's.
        Imho, it is worth every single sent. And compared to the asking price of current Duncans it was a hell of a bargain too, at $100.00 USD (each) at the time. The stock units was not that bad. Infact, they were OK for jazzy stuff, but i bought the guitar for hot rodded bluesy stuff. Think early White Stripes. Seeing that these units are the S/C'ers of the range they are purrrrfect for the warmer hollow body Artcore. The bridge is NOT icey or Tele style trebly, and the neck is warm but had plenty of punch. this guitar really cuts through with both of my Fender amps.
        It aslo sounds great on my cousin's old 5150 2x12 combo, and my brother's lil AC15.

        I also have a set of SD-design (not Seymour Duncans) units that is waiting for a guitar.
        problem is, i do not have a guitar yet, for the set.

        Hope this helps !
          .............I've just hit a 10.0 on my GAS-o-Meter.........Those PUP's are YUMMY.......
            Hello, welcome. Yeah, the US does have everything they want and need...they're a powerful country...
            SA is one of the last to get things...and sometimes...we have to import things that nobody else wants...and can't get here...frustrating...
              Love the pic of the cat with the bassman... great stuff!

              and I thought i was a pedal-phile! ?

                Thanx for the welcome Carmen

                . . . yes, i hear you - they sometimes have everything they need, as OK prices too !
                One thing i DO NOT want of theirs, is their modern cars.
                Up to late 70's is OK, but their new stuff, ermmmm, NO THANKS !!!

                That made me think - some time ago really !

                With the power of internet, everyone can see what is on the UD market, and if there is a hype about something, everyone wants it - not so ?
                So why doe "we" have to import stuff that no one wants, but the US is going Ga-Ga about it ?
                What do they (as guitarists) know, that we do not ?

                  Thanx Mate !

                  I allready have a list of 32 pedals that i want. (...it will never end)
                  Not that i have the funds for all of 'em, but i will come back with probably 10 or so - i hope !
                  I am a bit of a pedal-whore, but mostly of the FUZZ type.
                  I love all things fuzz.
                    a photographer? I meet hundreds who don't work in the USA. I know some who don't work at all.

                    you must be
                    a) freaking good
                    b) someone famous we dont know
                    c) working for someone big*

                      You know, my dad once came up with a good saying for America:
                      'When America sneezes, the rest of the world gets a cold'.
                      Not true? ?
