I have a D’Angelico Brighton in a limited edition color (rose gold). It’s #22 of 50 made. Think about it as an SG shape with an insane neck join. You can make B shape barre chords on the 19th fret with ease.
I love everything about this guitar. Color. Finish. Satin neck. Well…every thing except the neck dive (any fix for that?) and the pickups. The neck sounds good, and the bridge sounds good, but the middle position has this odd quacky sound. It’s almost like it’s out of phase. Except it’s not. I’ve checked it and had a tech check it. They’re in phase.
So here’s my question. Given that it’s limited edition and all that, should I be hesitant to change things like pots and pickups? I tend to keep everything I take out so I can return to stock if I so desire. But I am nervous because it’s one of 50 and no longer in production.
Would you hesitate to make a change? Should I?
Thanks in advance!
