I still recall Ace Frehley's with a bunch of extra picks stuck to the bottom edge ... must've dropped a lot of them. I expect the heroes of the DC Universe are saluting you! What do you have for pickups in that?
TF, the sad part is that is not ACE. Its Tommy (fake Ace) Thayer.
When getting the guitar, Eric, the owner and my guitar tech at the music store, wanted to keep what was in it. so i bought some GFS Crunchy Rails. They are pretty awesome. quoted from website
"The GFS "Crunchy Rails" are wound the hottest of any GFS humbucker.
We start with our twin stainless steel rails, polished to a high luster. We wind these as hot as we can- a ferocious 16.2K for the bridge and a strong 10.4K for the neck. The Crunchy Rails are tighter, more focused versions of our Power Rails- and work the best with a good FAT amplifier. Through a Soldano, VHT or Triple Recto they’re just amazing!
Make no mistake- there’s no vintage stuff going on here- these slam HARD. The mid-range is relaxed- not quite a “Scoop” but you get the picture. High end and bottom end are pronounced- even old fashioned amps sound supercharged with a pair of Crunchy Rails driving them. If you’re playing through a thinner sounding amp then choose our Power Rails- If your amp is happening, these are your pickups."
A lot of ppl compare them to the Duncan JB Players and they are so much fatter!
