The Doude is a grandpa!!!!!

My daughter just had a daughter!

Woot!!!!

Mabel Rose......

HEY! Congratulations from across the pond!

"Grandchildren are God's gift for not killing your own kids."

Enjoy the fact that as soon as she starts screaming, you can just give her back to your daughter. And bask in the way your daughter will be so apologetic for all she put you through when she was small.

I think you need something to celebrate. Most granddads it would be a whiskey, but in your case... mebbe a 44-51 in Shell Pink, since it's a girl?
Looking through your jealousy-inducing equipment list, there's a noticeable lack of pastel. Tell your wife that SoundSupport just doesn't think you're trying hard enough, and that you need to rectify the situation.

Seriously though, congratulations and prayers for health and safety in these difficult times. Will you be able to visit at some point?

Peace,
SoundSupport

Thanks much.

Yes...I would love a shell pink 5664!

The other Gpa and I shared a whiskey and a cigar over Zoom yesterday!..

Yes... Hope to be able to visit.... Not sure when though!.

That is actually a bit frustrating.
 
Went ahead and up graded the pickups to Nordstrand NJ4SE HUM-CANCELLING, added a John East J retro,I got to say I am loving it! still toying with the idea of going to the NJ4SV'S like I have on my Getty. Sorry about the pic , I suck at pics.

The East is a whole 'nother level in character.
 
Some OEM type single coils.
The hum was driving me nuts , i like the playing with the neck p/u louder than the bridge
So... Lakland Hanson singles. Single coil hum can be bothersome, especially if there's a lot of hum sources where you play: fluorescent lights, computer monitors, crappy electrical work (like most bar stages), etc etc. The Nordys are essentially humbuckers. But, since you like to favor the neck pickup, you'll probably love the extra oomph and mids. You'll be able to add back in any lost highs w/ the preamp.

Do you plan to sell the LH singles?
