    I need your opinion!

    Some of you might remember this one! It's been around for a while and I got my hands on it two years ago... Unfortunately it was a bit messed up when i got it - both from bad packaging but also from amateurs drilling holes and trying to do woodworks with a knife.

    Anyway - this is what it looked like when I recieved it.



    I haven't had the time or energy to deal with it before, but now I want to fix it. My goal was initially to make it "original" but it seems impossible to find out what it was like when it left the factory?
    So I have some alternatives... And I have done some photoshoping.

    Which one of these do you think is the "best"??? Or do you have some other (serious) ideas?






    I'm looking forward to your opinions! I have a favourite of my own, but I won't tell which one...
    And now I just have to find a good "painter"...

    Thanks!

        I'm with Gartron.

        Good luck, that is going to be killer.

                Because of the paint job, those big black blobs detract from the look.
                Go with the painted pickups, or the 1 black bridge pickup.
                Maybe paint the neck pickup if you need one.

                We can discuss knobs and switches after you choose the pickup configuration.

                  number 2, with a single metal dome volume knob. Actually, the painted covers on number 4 could work too - they seem fitting with the guitar's era.

                  I like the blade selector. It's a real point of difference from Gibson's Explorer. I like how it follows the horn too
