    they are t-armonds, my all time favorite pickups.

    this bird - named virginia - has a tru-arc aluminum rocking bridge, hipshot locking tuners, and a string through vee b6 w duane eddy arm. (thinking of replacing both my de arms with chet arms. we’ll see.)

    more pics after my pgd, trc, and pup rings arrive from quickguards tomorrow.

    i do like the de arms, but not as much as the chet arms, especially for shoegaze.

    and the chet arms are FAR more adjustable. probably the reason i’ll swap them.
