Chrome pickups rings, chrome toggle ring, uncovered humbuckers, and you'll have an exact replica. :applause:

In fact, Edwards sells an exact replica you can buy for around $1100 USD. :D

Yeah, I know. Got my mind set on an old Greco lawsuit (I asume). It's a Sykes replica (all the chrome, custom LP) gorgeus guitar :)

ooh that's HOT! I like the pedal setup too. that's where i put mine as well!:headbanger:

Thanks!

I have 3 pedals sitting on it really the only 3 or 4 I use:
Boss TU-3
Modded ZW-44 Rev 2 red board
TS-9
GCB65 modded with red fasel inductor & bypass

The stock inductor sounds like shit in the GCB65, the red fasel is clear with no distortion at all. I built one with a yellow fasel as well and its dirty as hell gets you that Hendrix wah tone in a heart beat.

I love my Black Custom. It goes with anything. I swapped out the gold for OEM nickel, just to add to the sexy.
I think my next LP will be the original grey BFG. It is so ugly it is beautiful. It feels like wood. You can even feel the ripple bumps in the wood. It should be great for bluesey stuff w/ the P90 and chambered body. Has anyone played or heard these and have an opinion on them?

Not exactly with the Seymour Duncans(!) they come with... I looked at the Edwards but couldn't get along with '50s neck. :mad:

Oh, I like natural wood finishes, but I suppose I can live with a ebony black or alpine white Custom, and Goldtop P90 LP... A faded (heritage) sorta honeyburst if I have to.

I have not played that BFG, I do own a zakk wylde bullseye BFG which will probably go on the market and looks aside BFGs are awesome players - you can generally pick them up secondhand for a good price too!!
