Congrats my mk1 reissue was a straight trade for a functional peavey triple xxx combo with el34 & 50 watts
great sounds but not enough volume was the peavey I definitely had to fix that mk1. Because it’s really a rock legend Now
I have a 2012 Firebird. I kept the electronics but changed the pickups. Will it be better off if I change the potentiometers? I think it is 500 kOhms. How much would an RS set cost?
I tried a pale moon ebony tele , and it didn't have any of the specs that I wanted but it sounded so good with a GC return policy that could be fun for a few days and return it!!
Sell my Firebird and keep the Strat. The Strat is ssh, Ash body, fast maple neck, great pickups (2seymour singles and a voodoo '57 PAF with parallel switch). The Firebird is Very Nice but I like fighting the Strat (11-48 strings and high action) for the 'Blooze' tones. And great metal sounds as...
Fiesta Red Strat with a thicker SRV type neck (all maple, tinted).
Red Devil bridge and APS 2 middle and broadcaster neck pickups. Maybe three volume controls?
White pickguard and plastics.
Tremolo system for tuning stability, maybe a Callaham with locking tuners.
Nickel plated hardware...
