De - Fre Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 (edited) How many stripes would you like to see between the pickups? Fred Edited August 31, 2005 by De - Fre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovekraft Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Personally, one looks better to me - but I think of the pickups more as visual interruptions than ornamental features. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesj Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 If the 2 went all the way.... otherwise with the 2 between the pickups, it just looks to me like you had to do it to hide something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattia Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Go with just the one, I'd say. PRS Santanas had two simply to hide the fact the neck went past the pickup, and a chunk of maple needed removing for it. I don't much like the look.

Hunter Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Personally, I like the way two stripes look more than one sprite. (That's why I voted that! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CudBucket Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 I voted for 2 but I'd do 2 all the way down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

De - Fre Posted September 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 Looks fine to me too. Might be the perspective. But any way it was only put on the guitar for display, not screwed yet Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

De - Fre Posted November 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 Here's what I almost finished yesterday: Alder body, maple top, maple neck, macassar ebony fingerboard, Gotoh bridge, Gibson burstbucker pickups (bought here), macassar ebony stripe on the body. The lacquer has some metal flakes in. What do you think? Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
