It's the surf green ones that pop out to me each time too thunderbird. That LP Special with the double P90s looks the business too. The materials used seem top rate for the money but, hmm, with that delivery charge a distributor this side of the ditch wouldn't go amiss. |

You are less than half the distance, right? |

Just found a UK dealer but they are more in pounds sterling than they are in dollars - how the UK currency has tumbled. Or is that something to do with the EU and import tariffs. Ahem.

I had the Slick SL50 in white, is was cool at first but I ended selling it, I didn't like the sound of the pickups. It was well made, I loved the tuners and bridge which were probably the best part of the guitar. It stayed in tune and was well intonated and set up right out of the box. If I were to buy again I would get the strat.

That's a shame iwe . The site makes great play about the design and sound of their special pickups - although they do sound quite hot. Perhaps the decision to not include an ashtray bridge affects this a lot. Maybe the lack of a tone control is a mistake, although I gather there is room to add one. |

I have bought GFS pickups for my strat copy and they sound amazing, I got the 59 vintage over wound and would highly recommend them. I think the missing tone knob really is what it was needing which is what I believe they added into SL51. I wasn't really disappointed selling it because I was able to buy another guitar that I love with the money. I would still recommend the guitar to people if it had the sound they were after, plus GFS' customer service is really good.
