Can somebody tell me where can I repaint and install pickup?

Why not do the pickup installation by yourself? It's easy.

I'm not quite understand with my guitar pickup... hehehe need to tuning it also..

old guitar - gibson challenger 1983, 2 hum 2 vol 1 tone

also need to repaint it... lot of scratch

Wow, then I help you to install the pickup.

yes..thanks... which is the best pickup? dimarzio, emg or sd? i thought to buy dimarzio dactivator neck/bridge pickup.. but emg active is quite good too.. but still not so sure..

i need to paint it first before i install it..

u have diagram to teach me? hehehe

Actually every pickup you buy, it comes with the instructions.

About which pickup to choice, I need to know your music taste?

For paint...this is the hardest part.

i play heavy.. n hard msic.. but sometime pearl jam too

someone recommend me to use dimarzio breed neck/bridge.. more on steve vai.. but i hate solo.. hehehe

need to paint it.. i hate my guitar now.. like scrap..

Yes, that brand will suit you.

Other than that, you'll need a better advise for this.

thanks 4 ur advise..

but the most important thing is to repaint it..

if you don't play solos and want heavy chunky riffs you can try EMG's and Duncans. . .

For DiMarzio i guess you can go for the X2N/ D Sonic or D Activators. . .

but for the classic original gibson tones why note get Gibson pups/Dimarzio or Duncan PAF copies?

Gibson - u mean 500t right? - but low output.. i'm looking for high output..

EMG active is the best.. but need to create a hole in your guitar right? i'm not quite sure.. u use emg active ? can u post your guitar pic here?

nah. . .i prefer DiMarzio. . . i use em exclusively =)

tone over output =D

yeah... i also prefer dimarzio.. do u know where can i repaint my guitar?

wah...whats your definition on high output ? 450 mV above ?

i think Gibson 500T is really high output leh..for me anyway..

hey ..why am i selling all the pickups you are looking for ? breed , Gibsons..

look for edward of freeman guitars....he do guitar repaint...u can try calling him(0122842830)

low output? what a load of crap.
heres gibson's old pickup chart.



basically the 500t is the hottest gibson pickup, and its output comes up to about 15k.
compared to the supposedly hot EMG81 which is only 10k.

really? so sorry.... i just compare with emg n dimarzio... hehehee

anyway since u already prove that gibson 500t is the best... i will choose gibson... thank everd..
