MCChris Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Great guitar, but I'm not bonding with the pickups. I'm a humbucker guy. I should have bought Miss Charlie's Monaco Superpro when she had it for sale, so I'm interested in a trade for another one; if that doesn't happen I'll sell the Speical for $1300 shipped. Includes two sets of pickups, Duncan Vintages installed (bridge is overwound to 11K by the SD custom shop), stock P90s in the case. Aiken amp not included.
MCChris Posted July 27, 2005 Author Posted July 27, 2005 Oh hell ... I'll consider ANY Hamer with humbuckers, I suppose. But a Superpro is my first choice.
belgian Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 How did the SD vintages sounded compared with the stock ones on your VAC ?
MCChris Posted July 27, 2005 Author Posted July 27, 2005 How did the SD vintages sounded compared with the stock ones on your VAC ? I actually haven't run them through the VAC yet. Sounded good through my Peavey Classic 50 at Bruce's this past Saturday night.
BadgerDave Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Chris,I have a pair of DiMarzio DLX-1 humbuckers that will fit in those P-90 cavities with no modifications. The're yours if you want them (paying off the Cali referral, bit by bit). Want to give it a shot before you jettison the Special?

The're yours if you want them (paying off the Cali referral, bit by bit). Want to give it a shot before you jettison the Special? That's an idea. Plus it'll give me an excuse to head back up to Minnesota so you can pop 'em in for me!
hardheartedbill Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 I really dig the soapbar size DiMarzios I'm using, a virtual P-90 neck and an overwound somewhere between P-90 and minbucker bridge, it's sure worth a listen if you dig the rest of the guitar (I sure do, I'm gassing for korina since I tried Steves V)
serial Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 (drumroll)...."Tree-Fitty"? Very cool lookin' git indeed.
MCChris Posted July 27, 2005 Author Posted July 27, 2005 Boy, I'd like that guitar... Don't deprive yourself, Dave.
hardheartedbill Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 LOL, don't hold back DavidE, offer the 350!!!!!!!!!!
Guest galejt Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Dave.You have been wanting one for a while now.This is Korina.You have been wanting one for a while now.Go go go...
DavidE Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 LOL.... you guys kill me. I don't have the cash to spend on it right now. As far as trades go, I keep asking myself how this simple, yet very cool guitar, could be worth more than something like an Artist Custom with it's carved top, fine woods, binding, inlay etc.... Unless you want a couple of nice shredders.....
hudpucker Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 DAMN. That's EXACTLY what I'm looking for in a Special, too. Unfortunately, my wallet is not only speaking to me but it's screaming "NO!!" the bastard.
belgian Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 And I have an 2002 Artist custom I am thinking to move.... And I love korina And I love P90's
