    Hey that guy is funny he says the korean pickups he puts are the best ...
    He told me his is better than EMG ......
    And he wasnt happy when ronnie said he put dimarzio removing his pickups !!!!!

    Use something like DiMarzio PAF Pro, DiMarzio Fred or Seymour Duncan SH4 JB Model. They are pretty versatail and can be used for everything from Blues to Metal. Great pickups.

    @cdeff
    I would suggest u get a neck-through-body design. Really will give u tremendous sustain. Get some decent shape and not a flashy one. Custom made's are for a lifetime and get a shape to die for playing. Do not get black finish but just clear wood finish. It just compliments the guitar and the wood better.
    Pickups...... put whatever u want n which suits ur sound.
    Regards
    Luthier

    BETTER DONT ....... The pickups are bad .....
    and even the fret board is not very impressing ... I havent seen many givsons but .. i know this for sure ....
    Better to go for a Tulsi ........ Or a Tansen if u can find one .. It'll be a bit more exp ... but worth it .......

    hi everybody
    thanx for ur post...my budged is only 15k..i cant afford dimarzio or EMG..there is no problem if he puts his korean pick up...i'll change later...i used to play blues and metal
    ..
    My worried about TULSI is that the wood he is using...we all know that worl class guitar has body wood like alder,mahogany etc...i dunno how is the wood he is using....
    Also the fretboard...is there any wrong fretted or how is the impression on the fredboard?

    Get a Tulasi one. He quotes about 9K and it will be worth it. Tansens are about 12K to 15K and it's crap for that money. Get a brand new Tansen if you get for 5K to 6K. That's all they are worth. Tansen uses Indian Ash for Body, so this Alder, Mahagony story dont work with Tansen too. If you can spend 15K, spend 3K extra and get yourself a Washburn N2. It has Alder Body, Maple Neck, Rosewood Fretboard, 22 Frets, Licensed Floyd Rose and has a very decent tone.

    I agree with Luthier. Neck Through or Set Neck gives great natural sustain.

    Albertos in Mumbai does any wood you want...I speced out a mahogany body, maple top and quilt maple veneer with a rosewood neck and ebony FB...15k +plus pickups which is damn good i think

    I dont think he cares about shapes and all....all shapes are almost equal work...should be n the same range..12-15 but i'll aks for sure
    neck/FB/construction details?

    The axe should be sharp and dripping with blood preferably. It's okay even if there are no Fretboard or strings but the axe and EMG pickups are very important. ;) :think:
