Default Epi Emperor Regent owners?

Odd request:

Has anyone upgraded their floating PUs? Does anyone still have the original pickup that they are willing to sell for a reasonable price?

Just phishing

Thanks

Drew

Knowing that you have already put a CC on your Emperor, I smell a project brewing...c'mon man, whatcha got planned?

Oooh...same guitar? A "poor Man's" Tal Farlow with a humbucker in the bridge instead of a P90?

Why am I the only one intrigued by this!?

I used to have one. I'll be home tomorrow evening, and I'll let you know if it is still in the pile o' parts bin.

The price would be limited to shipping cost - so I hope I have it.

Booka, S. -

I found the PU, but it is a GFS "Fat Jazz" PU with the neck bracket removed.

This is a deeper floating PU.

It is yours for postage if you want it, but it is not the same as the stock Epi PU.
