Yes tb+ ceramic mag les Paul buckers. I'm not sure how big the routs are cause there are big plastic surrounds around the pickups. I'll leave it to my tech to figure out what's involved. Could have got a single pickup T bird from Lull I guess but the Cataldo seems like a huge bargain compared to basically the same type of bolt on neck bass. And having a raised center section that is a cosmetic feature which imitates what was a functional design seems silly to me. Bass should be on it's way. Will report back when it gets in. Is it cool to post transcriptions on this board?
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

The NR bird fits in nicely with the rest of the harem.
