Went and dug up this thread, because I did something to my SG. I DID SOMETHING MAN!!
This is a 2008 special faded that I bought used. Well worn but nothing wrong with it, except I found the stock pickups a bit lacking. After some searching I came across Catswhisker pickups, made by this nice guy Allan in the UK at a very reasonable price, so I got a widerange HB (bridge) and HB-sized P90 (neck) from him. They're not wax potted AFAIK, which I like.
Finally got (drunk enough) to install them yesterday, and although I struggled a bit and left a couple small burn marks, I think I got the soldering down alright. A noob in that area.
I'm still experimenting with the height of course, but so far I really dig the sound. The P90 has a nice bite and the wide ranger is chunky as hell, which I didn't expect. But I've only played a little so far, plus I restringed the bastard today so that feels a bit weird. Got a set of Infeld Superalloy 011-052. This guitar is in open E tuning.
