Bruce ~ It's 3M aluminium foil tape (2") soldered at the joints. Well worth doing.
Orv ~ I don't know if you've ever tried Fender Texas Specials, but these are very similar. In fact, they're a little hotter. They have loads of bite, crunch, cream, quack...you name it. REALLY worth the $59.95 I paid for them.
Peg ~ Thanks buddy!!!
Marcus ~ Texas University have great taste! This colour scheme has been a dream of mine for years.
Sip tea it`s healthy-Hook em Horns
The GFS pickups are close to Texas Spls? Iwas wandering because I got one I am considering Carvins Or GFS.
Great looking guitar.
