Topic: The Charlie Christian '51
Greetings,
I took the plunge and decided to add a new pickup not seen before on this board. I fell in love with the sound once I heard it and couldn't get it out of my head. After much research on the history and vendors that make them...I saved up my dollars for a few months and ordered one from Jason Lollar.
Mr Lollar walked me through my options and gave me the cost for all of the options and informed me that it would be about 2 weeks before it was finished due to it being handmade. I paid...and waited.
Then...
Whats this? I have a package!!
What's inside?
WOOHOO!!! It's Here!!
*DROOL*
Beginning surgery...
Halfway through Surgery...
All done!
The install went well. I had to cut a HUGE rout in the guitar neck area because the pickup is bigger than a P-90. But with the pickguard on it's no worry. I tested the guitar for connectivity and sound after I put the strings on this morning and all is well. I will put up a youtube video later on this week.
Take care,
Dm
