I think the Gotoh brand Kluson style are a much better built and longer lasting gear than the new Kluson branded Kluson style gears. Allparts sells them, and lots of places sell stuff from Allparts.

Nice, I'm really jealous. I want a Red one.

If it sounds bad and thin when both pickups used together, the problem is not the pots, the pickups are out of phase.

I had the same experience when I toured the Memphis factory. The showroom/giftshop had incredibly sloppy guitars priced at $4000+. Binding scraped where it should been wasn't. And areas that shouldn't have been were. Runs in paint, orange peel. Sharp fret ends sticking out. Things that...
