+1 That's one of the nicest of those tops I've ever seen... Fodera-level Buckeye there! Beautiful.
I think Fodera sometimes has Sadowsky-level Buckeye tops!

Darn it.Vic, thanks for posting the link to the photos from the NAMM show.
I know that this is a Sadowsky thread but I couldn't help posting a great photo of a big-time hero of mine. (Sorry Vic but I was refering to the guy on the left.)

You and me both my brutha!!!
BTW, the interview I did with him for the current issue was SO MUCH FUN, and I'm priv'd to have his cell number and an invitation to call any time... especially if I'm planning to make one of their shows. How cool would that be... hangin' with Rocco before/after a TOP show, getting a backstage pass, meeting and hangin' with the rest of the guys, etc. I WILL make that happen.![]()

I think he is talking HCs that look like jazz PUs. They are actually two coils end-to-end. One three strings long, one two for the five string version. They aren't an ultrathin humbucker like you would think.
That said, I do believe the short coil goes B-E.
Personally, I like natural and black.

HAHAHAHA, Funny i spoke to Kevin today to change a few things including going natural but with a tort PG, i will most likely buy an extra PG in black to switch back and forth, when my new baby is done.
