C5BFG

Here's my Gibson BFG- you've seen it before, the most uncelebrated guitar in its pedigree...

My latest tinkering:

  1. CUSTOM 5: The Bare Knuckles War Pig humbucker was replaced by Seymour Duncan's Custom 5 for a lesser bass emphasis (adequate nevertheless...) & more top end definition.
  2. Mounting bracket: The BFG features a direct mount bridge pickup fixture; I got very sick of having to add/ remove the humbucker's sponge base padding (in lieu of pickup height adjustment springs) so in goes the mounting bracket...
THANKS Beez! For the superb re-wiring!
