Jackson Swee-Tone Jazz`R pickup change

Yup. You could expect to sell it for about $500 tops after that.

What pickups did you have in mind as replacements?

I have a couple of WCR DarkBursts that I really like.

I'd still recommend the string theory. Assuming, of course, you're able to get the pickups out.

Does yours have the hard v neck profile or the more rounded? I've had 3 Jazz'Rs, and only one had the round profile, which was more comfy for me.

[cristinelo]

It`s the V type. Fine with me.

I tried it on mine. Couldn't get the pickups out of the cavities. I think they're hammered in place and the rings are just for show

My pickups didn`t give me any troubles.

Good luck with the pick-up change, keep me posted on how it goes.

Your welcome bro! Thanks for the Ian, I may be sending it back to Eric though for his Death Angel. Well the Broderick and Ian that is!!! I have been playing them both today and may be backpedaling on the trade.

I know on a Gibson 335 or any jazz box guitar surgical tubing works pretty good for fishing the pots back in the guitar.Slip the tubing over the shaft of the pot and gingerly put it all back in there.Its a pain in the ass trust me, have a beer before you attempt it.
Everything needs to be wired up first.
