gorch 5,477 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I guess I'm partial to my Standard Custom. Of course, that's just me. conorb Damn, what's that? I've seen a black transparent Standard Custom trade on ebay two or three years ago that was setup up with gold hardware. It looked tremendously nice. Mini humbuckers are a great spot too. How do you switch them? Link to post Share on other sites

Lockbody 921 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Well, I guess as far as "iconic" HFC owned Hamers go, the Pizza Day Standard would rank right up there. One of those awesome playing and sounding Hamers that for some reason got passed around more than a cheerleader at homecoming. Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, a triple pickup with block inlays. I think an employee built it for himself. The multicolored one was Vernon Reid's, I believe: In fact, I'll just say that my top 10 probably are owned by Hamerica lol. Link to post Share on other sites

How do you switch them? That looks like one of the run of Standards Wilcutts had commissioned - so if it is, those pups aren't minis, they're Lollar Firebird pups unless I'm mistaken. The trans black top is killer. Link to post Share on other sites
gorch 5,477 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Aren't Firebird pups mini humbuckers? I thought they were. Link to post Share on other sites
tbonesullivan 2,462 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Aren't Firebird pups mini humbuckers? I thought they were. They are, but they aren't. They are basically overgrown twinblade pickups. They have blade magnets surrounded by coils. Mini humbuckers are essentially scaled-down PAF style humbuckers with magnets on the bottom.Of course, there are also the epiphone style pickups from before the buyout. Not sure what's up with them.
