My LG2005 has active EMG pickups with a passive tone control. It has a hybrid tone, a cross between a "P" and a "J". A really awesome tone with a lots of the 70s mojo, it doesn't really sound like the pickups are active. It is at the Roscoe shop for a new neck. It is apparent one of the previous owners didn't realize you can damage the neck by over cranking the truss rod.

Maybe when it is finished Gard can record and post a clip.
