I have a 1977 X500 for over thirteen years. I added a gold guild bigsby pinned the bridge with a Nashville tune-o-matic several years ago. I mainly play rockabilly and fifties sixties rock. The pickups are original, the pots and original wiring have been replaced. It has been refretted, and my luthier says it had a neck reset at some point. So, it isn't a museum piece, it is a player. I have always liked the way Dave Gonzalez of the Paladins X500 sounded with the P90's. Has anybody here put p90's in their big bodied Guild ? Do you think I would get a major difference in the tone over the stock humbuckers?
