Quote from a member (JP) in another topic : " I also like to play an Aristocrat with original Dearmonds and a Bigsby "
This made me think : Would it be possible in an reissue Aristocrat M 75 to swap the Franz pick ups with Dearmond like pickups. ( It's not that I don't like the Franz pickups , on the contrary, but I just like the Aristicrat guitars so much and this would a good excuse to add another one to my collection ;-).
At a first glance the size and mounting "system" of the pickups seem to be different. So drilling seems necessary and I wonder what this would do with the bracing etc.
So would it be possible or am I talking nonsense ...
