Closest Replication - Gibson 496r/500t

Sweetbabyjezuz · 03-15-2007, 11:35 PM

Hmm well I really liked that because it's punchy and sort of what i'm looking for in a replica of a 500t bridge. Not to mention my Washburn is also Alder (although earlier ones they say are basswood but this was new, so it should be alder hah) as well so that sound could be a pretty good indicator of what it'll sound like in mine.

Now the question becomes. Do I spend 250 (pups/chrome hardware) upgrading this guitar...or save for a higher end model anyway hah.

Well decided i'm selling the guitar, instead of spedning 350 total (guitar + pups) + 50 for hardware, totaling 400 for the guitar

i decided i'd sell it and buy this, and i did buy it http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWN:IT&ih=001

not bad for $560 shipped. Going to put the Washburn up on ebay.

Nice score on the Carvin. And it doesn't look like a coffee table!
