Thanks guys.
Crowbar.
That early in the morning its a "Toetar".Your pedal feel is totally different without shoes.
Think I will keep the Zum as is. I have BL-_705's
in my MSA now,Thats where I swipe the 710's.
Put Emmons 19k single coils in the Zum did not like the high end.

Msa tone change

Post by Ivor Greenwood »

Hi Vernon
I think you should try an alumatone pickup on your MSA....SUPERB TONE ...I remember your first post of sweet memories...It was the best one ..versions two and three somehow lost the sweet sound of number one...I wish you would post that version again...The MCI had nice tone for some numbers you did ...Ok keep them comming...good health.......cheers
