Thanks for the picture Lamar... mine has the same mechanism. I’m just not used to seeing them with adjustable legs!
I put grease on the internal cam and it made mine work much better, btw.

how do the pickups sound?
Are these pickups strong? Some of these older ones get weak sometimes only on one side and/or microphonic.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say.

Re: how do the pickups sound?
Mine sounds great... I'd heard that the Don Helms version with the earlier oval pickups were more desirable... but mine sounds sweet, with that P90 cream tone.Keith Bolog wrote:Are these pickups strong? Some of these older ones get weak sometimes only on one side and/or microphonic.
