I've got the B.C.Rich and it's extreme to say the least, but sounds amazing with the nailbombs and as we are to be starting a glamrock band soon I'm tempted to just leave them in and buy some more for my Les Paul.
Have to say, my mate pissed his self laughing when he saw the B.C Rich... :whatever

The t-tops that are in it are good pickups. IF you take them out you can sell them for several hundred dollars. Check out e-bay and see what early 70s t-tops are going for.

Just to let you know guys, the Nailbombs sound amazing. I thought they sounded ok, nothing special, just ok, but it's like that when you're stood in front of you're amp. It was my two pals who'd come to see us, they were gobsmacked by the sound of my Les Paul through the VM, and as they've never commented before. So it must be the pups, me thinks.

If the Nailbombs sound that good in a £200.00 guitar, I wonder how they would do in your Les Paul. :yea
