So long as it feels good, you can throw in whatever pickups you want to get it to sound good too and do what you want it to do. doesn't matter if you tour, record, play at home, etc. Your life is so much easier at the end of the day if you just embrace #trashlife and throw away all hope of embracing social standards while your body slowly absorbs the juice and smells of the bottom of the garbage can that is your life.

My only real problem with them is that the necks aren't ideal but it's not like I don't have fun playing them, so who gives a shit really? Plus I wouldn't get much for them, so the utility outweighs the benefit of selling them.
Time to displace this consumer impulse into needlessly researching replacement pickups!
I like the neck on my Godin a ton more than the one on my Fernandes LE-X. The Fernandes gets more play time because I paid $80 for it and don’t care if it gets dinged. It took a fall last year and got gouged, and I shrugged it off.
Never mind pickups. What about strings? I kind of want enough of a gaggle to string all differently for different sounds and feels, much less tunings. Flats, rounds, nickel, steel, slinky, fat, and at least one Nashville strung electric.
Well said brvthrvn. #trashbrothers.
FISHBONE!!! That said, I bet if you put in an offer for $300 they would take it.
