That's a beauty Duff - I've not yet seen a natural finished one. You got the rare headstock emblem too.... nice catch.

My 81 ES100 J:

so she arrived today, here's a bad pic straight out of the box.
Jacco and Marcus, did you guys keep the original pickups.
I was thinking of putting the paf daddys in, or ordering some new wizz pickups but the ones in there now sound great (after only playing for 5 min).

I need to buy a case. Does someone make a lifton es335 copy, like they do for les pauls?

 

[marcusnieman]

The stock J pickups in them are great. If you decide to swap yours out and sell them, I'll take first dibs on them :wink:

 

[jacco]

Man, that's a beauty!!

Mine came with non original pickups.
I have a Klein Epic Semi Hollow in the neck and a Kloppmann 59 in the bridge position now.
