Did someone else buy them?
Did they make anything else besides tuners?
My Guild X175 has a set of Kolb tuners and they are just a work of art.

Who were they, where were they made and what happened to them?

Do they have any tie in to Franz metronomes?

Did they make pickups for anyone else besides Guild?

Are the pickups on Premiers made by Franz?

Thanks, 8o

I have a pretty specific question about early sixties Guild electronics : As many of you know, I have two Guild X175's, a '60, and a 62. Both have the white covered Franz P90-like pickups.

I've finally started using the '60 on stage more often, but compared to my '62, I'm not crazy about the volume pot tapers on it, and the action of the tone pots.

The volume pot fix is easy enough : I've long replaced both original... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Walter Broes) http://rockinhollowbodyguitars.yuku.com/topic/515 Sun, 28 Sep 2003 10:22:43 GMT <![CDATA[ dearmond2,00 vs "mickey mouse" pick ups ]]> http://rockinhollowbodyguitars.yuku.com/topic/516/t/dearmond2-00-vs-quot-mickey-mouse-quot-pick-ups.html feeds@yuku.com (sam boston) http://rockinhollowbodyguitars.yuku.com/topic/516 Mon, 15 Sep 2003 08:22:34 GMT <![CDATA[ P-90 Pickups ]]> http://rockinhollowbodyguitars.yuku.com/topic/507/t/P-90-Pickups.html
The Gibson P-90's from the 50's helped define jazz and early rock and roll. Just listen to the 50's Chuck Berry recordings and you can hear P-90's. In a jazz vein Grant Green and Kenny Burrell used P-90 equipped guitars. And listen to Kenny Burrell playing on Chitlin's Con Carne with his P-90 equipped guitar.

Here's the thing: I think the bridge is as integral part of the sound as the pickups or scalelength, etc.

Generally since I play Jazz mostly I've been using wood, but if I start rockin' out and playing Rockabilly I know I'll want the Bigsby with the aluminum setup.
