SteveZ,

Have you tried an A6 PU as well as the stock B6 (in the Deluxe)?

NiAG

I tried both pickups. The A6 gets more clarity, definition and more output. The B6 is darker, lower output, and the pots are not adjustable (covered). I find both very good, but different. I found that adjusting the pots was really something that was required when used with heavy strings (.013), where the B string is always too loud compared to the wounded G string.

Expensive laminated guitars.
how much Elferink?

[PascalD]

Expensive? Well it all relative. If you buy the same guitar direct from Benedetto, you need to add 25% (VAT + import tax) and about 220 shipment. So basically, the price is fair.

Buying guitars is expensive in Europe! Its tempting to compare the US prices in Euro, but you always have to factor in shipping and hefty customs/VAT charges. PascalD is correct, I've priced it out both ways.

Ofcourse...but sometimes it is possible to buy in USA used guitar for realy good money.I know everything new is expensive.
