Shame about the double roller Bigsby, and it seems to have had some funny business with the pickups too...but...S-300?

Hey Walter,

Ooops - sorry for not checking the book first Hans, and thanks.

Do you think this one would have had Franz pickups originally?

Oh yes, it had! I've actually been in touch with the person who had it converted not long after he had bought it new.

Thanks Hans, that would explain the oversized pickup spacers then. Your Guild knowledge never ceases to amaze!
