Just as an fyi I never did side with one person over another and never stated in my post that I believed the accuser or that Ron was guilty. I inadvertently and without malice confused one guitar builder I heard of for another. I do not stay up do date on Fender custom shop master builders. I...

My Fender partscaster that has gone through every conceivable configuration before I settled on this....again....sort of. It may not be a silk purse but if definitely started life as a sow's ear
I posted a pic a while back of the gus g when I first got it but here it is with its fellow pointy after they both got their pickup upgrades. Seymour Duncans in the Gus and Dimarzios in the old Ibanez DT350
