Tokai Greco epiphone Les Paul and strats , did you swap out the pickups and if you did what did you swap them out for.

The bubble has burst on guitars the Indonesian or Korean manufacturers are putting out awesome guitars. This Michael Kelly is alder body with maple too dark roasted maple fretboard awesome, and have you seen the 59’s epiphone is bringing out of China just awesome carved top maple cap long neck tenon. I’m happy today people can buy decent guitars and not have to pay top dollar.
