Even more bizarre than PAF mumbo-jumbo is the way "bad" pickups become "good" pickups over time. The entire pickup industry that was born in the 70s (especially Duncan and Dimarzio) was built on the...
So, it's a 1935 Triumph. It's a 16" model. I think my '36 L10 sounds MUCH better but, I just end up picking this up because it's so light and it plays really well. I feel really comfortable...
