I'm so glad I found this thread....I've only been playing for about a year and have more guitars than sense. I must admit though the best thing about it is that I've gotten used to both my 52'Hot Rod and my American Standard 04. I find myself messing with everything on the American Standard, trying to make it sound better to me..now i realize what I am doing, Im trying to make it sound like the hot rod....I shielded all the cavities with copper tape, installed 52 re issue pickups, and still, Im not quite happy with it...I have recently been looking for a vintage bridge for it, but have been told that I would have to drill new holes, so thats where it ends...I think I'll sell the AM std and save up for a copper 52'.........hmmmmm or maybe a bigsby....lol
