I remember that had a variety of tones you were able to get-unique and should have been a keeper but_____

Ya Peto was really a good guy to deal with. I gave $1500 plus shipping through paypal with no fees. I know he didn't play it much because when it arrived he had the guitar strung with the 2-6 strings and the High E string was in an envelope. It can be pretty hard to restring the Bigsby if you are not used to it. I have a set of small foam rubber wedges that I made out of the corner of one of my floor pads I put down in the garage when I'm working on my old cars. They hold the string on the Bigsby perfect while your getting tension on it.

With all three engaged it actually forces my amps to breakup about a notch earlier than normal.:triumphant: Never had that happen before! The current setup I am running at the house is the 1970 Guild Thunderbird 2x12 and a New Fender silverface Custom Deluxe Reverb 1x12 22w in Stereo. My pedal board in sequence is:Boss TU-2 tuner/ Sabbadius Mr. White 2 Hot tube emulator/ Original Fulltone OCD/ JHS Moonshine overdrive/ Marshall JH-1 Jackhammer/ Line six DL4 Delay Box/ TC electronic Ditto Looper/ Ernie Ball Jr. Volume Pedal into a Live Wire A/B-AB Switch box, then into the amps. The A/B box lets me run One or the Other Amp or Both at the same time. The P90's are just awesome through it!

I love P90s. That is a nice ménage à trois of tone.

Thanks Manic, I love p90's as well. As a matter of fact I was just checking out some Seymour Duncan Custom Shop PHAT STAPLE humbuckers for my Starfire V. Can't seem to find many reviews on the humbucker sized pickups but the one sound clip I did find was to die for(it was on seymour duncans forum). They are supposed to be Duncans version of a Staple P90 in a Humbucker shell. Just don't know if I want to spend the Duncan Custom shop prices to find out if I like them or not.:hurt:

I commend your effort and correct use of accents, for a proper spelling of "ménage à trois". Rare, and refreshing. Thank you.
