I usually like the more open sounding pickups (lots of my pickups aren't even potted for that reason). However, if the guitar is on the heavy side, the open sounding pickups don't work for me anymore. My favourite set for the Supra is a SH-14 in the bridge and a SH-1 in the neck position. Never tried the Distortion set from SD.

Frankly, if I was ever tempted to use this onstage - and that is unlikely under just about any circumstance I could envisage! - I'd be inclined to put a premium set of p'ups in it, like Bareknuckle; either h/b or P90s. A local bloke has a set of B/N VHIIs in an Ibanez of some stripe, and they are beyond GOOD!
Allowing for the fact that Don wouldn't even roughly let me gig this, I'm too old and fat now to even countenance using a 5kg guitar around my neck for any length of time, eh; if I were to play out, Genesis II or Avenger 395 would be chosen, simply for the lack of heft involved... and because that Genesis is a beast!

Nice to see you, Pierre and Wutz!!

Very very nice :)
Just pack numbers 1,3 and 5 into durable boxes and send them straight to my house. :love:
I'll treat them with much love and kindness

The picture was taken quite some time ago... number one is not with me anymore... but I have to admit that I found a replacement. :D

Number four is straying from the norm, as it sounds killer with the Classic Powers. I just never find the time and patience to clean the Kahler, so it's of no use right now.
