My guitar came alive.
My Traditional L.P. always sounded good to my ears with '57 Classics. However, as years progressed, my ability to hear the guitar matured. I also got to hear what an actual 50's L.P sounded like and I knew my Les Paul did not sound like that UNTIL I installed Sheptone Blue Sky pickups. My guitar is clearer, and yet gives more complex tones that are not lost in the mix. I can actually hear my guitar in the band. The other thing is that it opens your heart to inspiration and makes you play more. My quest for vintage tone for this guitar is done.
