I'm really glad and proud of that guitar, I got the "Brown Sound"...

Looks beautiful! That guitar just screams, "Play me!" I'd switch the Gibson-style volume knob for a Fender-style "Tone" knob and the strap buttons for eye hooks. How does that pickup compare to others you've tried?

Yes, I got a Gibson style knob (like the Explorer, it's original to the early Pacers^^). So, I would like to change this knob for a Jazz Bass knob or a MXR knob. This pick-up is simply the best I've ever tried... You simply got the EVH sound and if you like the Brown Sound and the early years of VH, you will love that humbucker... With this humbucker, you directly got the sound of VH1,VH2,1984 & 5150. It's a humbucker more expensive that the others but in open black, it's a limited edition, and it's handmade by Seymour Duncan himself (there is his signature on the box and the back of the humbucker). You won't regret this if you buy this.
