Re: Gibson pickups vs Dearmond pickups?

I think I agree with you.

I just didn't need another guitar, only a new sound.

Since I posted my question, I spent more time with my Starfire, and I felt in love with it again. I remember now why I bought it in the first place.

But I still want the Les Paul sound. So I will first experiment with a preamp circuit to add to the Starfire so I can give it a sound closer to a LP when I want. I checked a few multi-effects that have a "single-coil->humbucker" option and it seems to be only an EQ thing.

That's until I can buy a LP clone if I still feel the need later.

Btw, another reason I wanted to mod my Dearmond is that a guy who is playing at the same Blues Jams than me bought one 6 months ago.... I don't like having exacly the same guitar than someone else.

So I guest I will change the knobs for some chromed ones, and put a different pickguard. That would be a start...

Hope you like the one you ordered on Ebay

Thanks,

Gilles.
