I just bought I Gibson BLueshawk!!!! The tone is awsome. The pickups are decent as soon as I can afford to I'll put new pups in. The feel of the neck is perfect, the veritone switch gives you tons of cool tones, and it looks so beautiful.

New stuff is cool. Pics? Enjoy.



congrats !

Blueshawks are really cool guitars. What color did you get?

I got the it in ebony. I don't have a digital camera. Hopefully I can borrow one from someone in the next couple of days.

looks alot like lucille

Congrats, Woodcutter. They're fantastic guitars. What pups were you thinking of using ?

Not shure yet I wont to play it abit more before a make a decision (and I have no more money). I'm open to all segestions.

I would leave those in, the Blueshawk has some good pickups IMO. They are a hybrid of a Strat single and a P-90. They use alnico 5 magnets and magnetic polepieces, but coil windings similar to a P-90. A word of warning- if you want to keep the dummy coil (genious IMO), it might get kind of iffy when you change pickups. I was going to put P-90s in mine until I found out it would mean buying three of the exact same pickup. The dummy coil will only cancel hum if all three pickups share the same windings. This could get expensive. I would give the pickups a few weeks before you decide. They have a unique sound for sure. Mess with the varitone a bit. I was able to get a good Social D P-90 tone, some stratish tones, even a very convincing acoustic guitar tone (neck pickup/varitone- one of the first three pos.). I would give it a chance before you mod. I don't know if you've been to this site , it has more info than you will ever want to know about your new guitar.

Thanks for the link Big Blank.

I've always loved the way they play. almost picked one up on a number of occasions.

NEW STUFF ROCKS!!!

i NEED to play one of these someday!!!!

Congrats! That is one cool looking guitar. Never played one, but I've read lots of good things about it.

Smart move, Woodcutter. Enjoy it as-is ... if it needs something else, you'll know.

Enjoy !

That's a nice guitar man,even if i've never heard of it before. Hope you enjoy it.



I also recommend you leave the pickups in, they are actually very good.

Keep it stock! They're amazing for grunge, IMO. Like early nirvana and houdini era melvins...

I've always found the design of that guitar appealing.
Congrats!

I love this guitar!!!!
