Do Wesley guitars and Stagg guitars come out of the same factory, ?

I like the turntable player in that band. (Lincoln Park) The way that dude pushes the on button and wiggles those records back and forth is utterly amazing!?!?!?! What a musician...........

And while I'm on rant...what about all these heavy metal guys who dressed like chicks to get famous and then took of the spandex and became tough??? Motley Crue, Poisin and all those other D-bags. Hey, again the music doesn't offend me and I'm sure they're plenty talented enough but am I supposed to forget you dressed like a tranvestite to get famous. Where's the integrity?
What happened to the artists who gave a shit about what was in the music and not so much about what people were buying????

Tibernius, I am in your top 10? I have a MERCEDES ML, when I started practising again, and having a lot of house calls, I needed ASAP another "vehicle".I had to decide quit fast, because I went to South Africa, in April 2001 with the intention: if I can do this trip, and the results were good, I wanted to start soon. VEHICLE a must, but due to my crash I needed a higher model, like a HYUNDAI Santa Fé, or a Freelander. I took the freelander, 1 year later, I was very anxious, driving that car, even scared. If you feel not safe, scared, anxious in a car and my "income"depended a lot using a car, (the "core" of your practice are older people, disabled people....) so I sold that car, and since my crash happened with a BMW (a convertible, and 300kg heavier than the NON convertibles), this to prevent your car rolling top-bottom-top.. I needed to have a car high enough. Different on holiday, most USA + mustang convertible, you drive a very long time, like  400 -600 miles, in contradiction with working = 20 house calls, short distances, I needed a car, open the door, turn, and without any problem you get in your car. If you start hating a car, the result can be dramatic. That's the reason why I drive an SUV, like Mercedes ML. I felt safer, less anxiety, in April I pay the amount to take over, what happens next? I don't know. I have always loved CARS, GIRLS, HOLIDAYS and GUITARS, and in fact I should be better of with a regular car.

The tonal difference is not noticed because they're cheap pickups, imports with a "k" value of around neck and middle 5.2k and bridge 5.3k so no difference. As T.S. mentioned you can change out the pickups. Check out the GFS pickups, they're reasonabley priced at no more than $ 80.00 american a set. I have a 70's overwound that I am going to put back in an alder body strat. If you change the pickups change the pots, switch & caps also. I would use CTS pots, Orange drop caps & either an Oak Grisby or CRS switch good quality parts.

Bootlegger.

Another over-rated clown in Kurt Cobain.  He couldn't play his way out of a paper bag, and neither could Jack White, another loser who needs to take some guitar lessons.

Since you already made a bunch of choices building the guitar...
