My buddy, who did the pickup swapping, was in the room for all the A/B testing, and has played both guitars extensively, thinks the R9 with MCP's sounds better than the real '59.
YMMV

I think you can get one for even less than that if it’s been refinished and if it’s an sg custom then maybe even 3 pickups.scottosan":1mg1jjko said:I thin the 60s where physically the same pickup, but with a patent sticker.
