  • Got my new bengal Sl-2 today...

    It looks even sweeter than it did in the pics! I Had an Sl-2 pre fender and let me tell you the fret work on this one is a LOT nicer, no glue all over the place.

    The neck also seems a bit thicker at the first couple of frets, which for me is more comfortable.

    My only little small gripe is that it came with cheap plastic pup rings, and my other had the nice flat metal ones. The plastic ones barely cover over the route where the piece of the pickup that has the screw in it goes.

    I found exact replacements for the ones I had and I'm hopeig that the will match up to the plastic ones. I'd like to not have to drill into my new guitar [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

    Kudos to Matt at OSG again!

          Joe,

          The ONLY reason why I'm not going with the yellow is that Dimarzio pups are a flat type finish and the yellow doesn't look that good, so I went with black, but still got my gold pole pieces [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

          The black goes just as well with the Bengal anyway, I have no capability to post pics, but you can see it on Matts site.

            Ah, cool. I didn't know they were a flat finish. The gold pole pieces are a nice touch, though!

                          Thanks guys!

                          Hey Charlie, I'm putting in the same ones that you have, just black -The Air Norton and a Tone Zone.

                          Joe,

                          Dimrzio does have some glossy finisshes, but they told me that it is only on certain pickups, and the ones I wanted aren't on the list [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img]

                          As soon as I get the new pickups in, I'll do my best to get a picture of this thing [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
