Ordered a H535 from Jay Wolfe with Seth Lover Pickups and got '59's instead!!

To keep them or not, that is the question!!! Any suggestions???

do you like the 59s? if you do, perfect reason to get another axe with seths!

I've never had 59s or Seth Lover's!! Just going by most post saying the Seth Lover's sounded better in the H535???

This happened to me, but not with Jay. I was not happy because I got something different than what I expected, I liked SL pups a lot, and 59s are cheaper pups.

 

But when I played the guitar, all was well.

 

The dealer apologized and offered to take the guitar back. The apology and a great sounding H535 made it all better.

that's my point. we're all influenced by others' opinions, usually to good end. and i'm a seth lover fanboy. that said, let your ears be your guide. you might have a gem of an axe with the 59s. others' opinions mean very little where your guitar is concerned.

...let your ears be your guide.

:thumbsup: I would also like to add when playing press the guitar right up against your sternum and let your heart and soul feel the vibration. You'll know if its right for you.

Well, I say you should get what you asked for. You asked for Seths for a reason. I've not been a fan of the '59s, but admittedly that was in a solid body, not a semi. Still ... they aren't what you ordered. If you can live with them, that is, of course, your choice. Bird in the hand sort of thing.

 

But thinking back, who am I to offer an opinion? When I ordered my Millie DC I specified a one piece back, got a two piece. In the end it didn't matter. So ... ignore my post. :)
