fatherjones.com Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 I changed the hardware to Nashville TOM and Stoptail -- and did locking Grover drop ins for the tuners. Also, neck p'up is an MFS Mean 90 -- very tasty indeed. Heritage 001.gif Heritage 001.gif_thumb
Dick Seacup Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Welcome to the Club! That is a fine looking 150, man! (can't get a web page to load for fatherjones.com, though)
Gitfiddler Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Bless me, Father Jones, and welcome to the Heritage confessional. It has been two weeks since my last purchase....
yoslate Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Yo, Dad! That would be what a 150 oughta look like!!! If that thing sounds like it looks, it'll be women and children to the lifeboats! Nicely done! Welcome to forum.
tulk1 Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 I changed the hardware to Nashville TOM and Stoptail -- and did locking Grover drop ins for the tuners. Also, neck p'up is an MFS Mean 90 -- very tasty indeed. That would be a GFS (Guitarfetish) Mean 90? Good stuff at a decent price break. Looks good in the 150, too.
doggy1972 Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 Welcome. Hows that Mean 90 sound compared to a true p90? Ive been looking at these and, from what I hear, the mean 90 is pretty close.Nice guit BTW.
fatherjones.com Posted February 14, 2008 Author Posted February 14, 2008 The GFS Mean 90 is very hot and sounds killer. It has a tad more clarity than a humbucker by virtue of being single coil and not cancelling out a bit of upper frequency stuff -- but is wound very hot. Lots of mids -- and power. It brings my all tube Ampeg Jet 20 to the line between clean and soft overdrive very nicely. A real screamer. I normally buy Fralins -- but I think this Mean 90 is better than the comparable Fralin product the 'Split Single.' It reminds me of a hot Gibson p90.
fatherjones.com Posted February 14, 2008 Author Posted February 14, 2008 Anybody have an idea what this would sell for?
doggy1972 Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 Thanks for the report father. Now Im really interested. They seam like some of the best value pups about too. Need p90s
fatherjones.com Posted February 15, 2008 Author Posted February 15, 2008 Yes, in terms of value this are a slam-dunk. No comparison. Stop shopping. I've tried Phat Cats and Fralins -- and both are of course excellent. But they're not better. And, they cost twice as much.
