Audio Taper.

For a similar current production model, you might want to look into the Chicago Music Exchange Exclusive SG Standard. The closest colors would...

With those inlays, neck humbucker placement and harmonica bridge, I'd say it's from the '70s.

You're welcome, @Wild Bill212 ! My Les Paul does not have the adjustable nut. It is a bit of an odd one for the time period. The model was...

I removed the G-Force from my 2015 Les Paul and replaced it with Grover Rotomatics. There were no screw holes underneath. The "box" is held only...

My Firebird had the same issue. There are ways around that: 1. Mount pickup ring(s) to the pickguard, a la Angus Young Custom Shop. 2. Bend the...

Make sure you verify the model. Guitar Center had an exclusive around this time, same finish (as well as an aged cherry) but with the slim taper...

Is everything "one louder" on that guitar? :D

There were a couple of AMS exclusives that had a Firebird pickup in the neck. (Don't know if they were vintage-correct pickups or not...) Here's...

The pots could be stock (they're labeled Gibson), but the capacitors certainly are not. To clear up the neck pickup, you could try: 1. Lowering...

Are the tuner bushings press-fit or bolt on? The former are 8.8mm, the latter 10mm. Pictures may help.

It's been my (admittedly limited) experience that Gibson Custom Shop neck profiles are typically thicker than their USA counterparts. I used to...

My question is: What's keeping that '57 Classic from rattling around in the body? I don't see any height adjustment screws in the pickup ring......

Tru dat. A good guitar is a good guitar, regardless of year.

500k audio taper, all around. I like the turn resistance and smoothness of a flat back CTS with brass shaft.

It wouldn't surprise me if Gibson used both knob styles for these guitars, whether "limited" or regular production runs. I have a '19 with PCB...
