If I understand correctly the Steve Howes came with the L5-style bridge, the zigzag tailpiece, yellowed binding, butter bean tuners and a fat switch knob. Like many people, there were 3 reasons I...

I don't envy your precision measuring equipment, but boy do I envy the guitar! Unless the top and bottom E sound weaker than the rest, even after adjusting pole screws, I'd not be worried.

It absolutely depends on the guitar as a dearmond is a microphonic pickup so it responds to the acoustic environment. I also could do a video comparing a vintage 1000 ( no polepieces ) and a...

I am a big fan of the early 60's 175. I had one and the reason it is gone is that like most guitars of that vintage, it needed a lot of restoration. I had a lot of work done and was not happy with...

How is the Steve Howe 175?

I had a 2010 Steve Howe. Just a 175 with a L-5 bridge base. No difference except for the finish. Triburst with black rims.
