Re: Les Paul custom bridge pickup suggestion

I have read that he only likes to actually deal with his famous customers/endorsers. Seems likely. And even those have seemingly dried up. Don’t hear his shit spoken about at all anymore.

This is an old OEM EVH tube from a previous EVH that I had. In the past, I always swapped out the stock tubes and set them aside, so now I have a shit load of them haha.
My thoughts exactly.

Re: Les Paul custom bridge pickup suggestion

I put a Motor City Black Belt in the bridge of my black beauty and love it. Reasonably priced and it sounds killer. His communication could be way way better. But his pickups are stellar.

Re: Who do we like for tubes?

In my experience, tube rolling makes a difference in old amps. New stuff is designed for current tubes. So it isn't too important. I agree with this.
