Ibanez Talman Transformation

[GuitarTechCraig]

Originally had a cream pickguard and 3 lipstick tube pickups.
I hand made the black pickguard, replaced the tuners with locking ones, changed the trem to a Wilkinson. Obviously, changed the pups to chrome P-90s. Slightly modified wiring with a push/pull tone control.

NICE!!! Uhhhh, still have the original pickups? (hint hint, nudge nugde)

[GuitarTechCraig]

Yes, I still have all of the original parts. Don't want to part with them yet.

If you are looking for these pickups, you can get them here...

Thanks. It's called "Gravure Flame Maple"

Gravure means it was printed from an etched cylinder.

Some companies call this "foto-flame"
